Heavyweight boxing is a dangerous sport.

my take on the fight -

fairly entertaining fight. quite a few times it looked as though it could go either way. brewster started out the first two rounds with a somewhat ferocious attitude. he began to visibly tire from round two onwards. krasniqi was outboxing brewster for most of the rounds, but not thoroughly, however. by the last few rounds, both fighters were extremely tired. i felt that if krasniqi was able to put a few more combos together he could've dropped lamon, who seemed a bit hurt at various points.

krasniqi mostly lost due to exhaustion and brewster, although tired himself, taking advantage of luan not being able to keep his hands up.

all in all, it was competetive up until the last two rounds of the fight.

krasniqi mostly lost due to exhaustion

No way.

He received a brutal attack to the body, and that's why he was carrying his hands low.

Brewster's power was the deciding factor, and Krasniqi only slowed because of the body shots he took.

well bozo, you are right, he did recieve a massive body attack in the first couple of rounds. that may have led to his exhaustive state.

but i'll say this. brewster's power was not nearly as powerfull in the ninth as it was in rounds 1 and 2. brewster was sloppy, even reaching with his punches at times. but i think it was mainly exhaustion. of course the body punches from the first two rounds probably accelerated that.

i guess we can agree to some extent here.

i'll also add, i've never seen krasniqi fight before, so i don't have a gauge on his stamina. but overall, brewster didn't overly impress me.

Krasniqi is a very solid and durable fighter.

And I don't know why you say the body attack was specific to the 1st two rounds, it was fairly consistant throughout the fight.

I also don't know how you can say Brewster lost his power late in the fight, as he was fighting while tired landing some of the most thunderous shots in the fight in 8 and 9.

He landed several bombs in the 8th before landing one of the most vicious punches of this decade.

It blows me away that anyone could watch that fight and not be impressed with Brewster's preformance.

I wasn't sold after Wlad and Golota, but when you add a win like that it's hard to deny Brewster is making a statement that he's a force to be reckoned with in the division.

perhaps i need to watch the fight again. i've only seen it once. but from what i remember, the biggest concentration of body shots was early on in the fight.

brewster seemed to swing with less technique later in the fight. he was fairly drained. his corner had to help him stand up after the fight was called.

the bombs brewster landed in the eight were due to krasniqi's diminishing defense and seemingly loss of stamina(from bodyshots or whatever).

there were times is saw that brewster was clearly stunned for a second or two, but krasniqi never connected with a solid combo to follow up.

i do agree that brewster is a bit of a force now that he's getting better more experianced fighters.

great discussion bozo. your statements make me want to review the fight again, so i will withold further discussions of this fight until after i veiw it again.

but it was entertaining.

Brewster takes a very good shot, so I wouldn't say he was in any trouble at any point all though he was stunned a few times. But krasniqi is a durable solid hitting heavyweight.

If you do watch it again, note how Brewster adjusts to Krasniqi's boxing by jabbing to the chest and following it up with hooks to the side.

Also, I think Brewster (rightly sensed) that in the 8th that Luan was getting ready to go. A sign his work to the body had paid off.

And after the fight Brewster was helped up and around by his corner because he go emotional. He tends to do that. I don't think he was as tired as you seemed to.

I think this win (overall) won't get the praise it should A) because not many people saw it, and B) because not many people are familiar with how credible an opponent Krasniqi is. Not saying he's a world beater, but he's solid, has a great chin, and I thought he'd out point Brewster.

I give all the creditin the world to Brewster for winning, because he showed he can make adjustments.

Another sign he's developed for the better.

Brewster has impressed me and what suprised me is that the german guy could actually fight, and looked like an in shape heavyweight fighter who could hold his own, and he did. As far as comparing his power to other fighters in the top of the division, id say that left hook which has been droppin mutha****as like flies is one of the best in any division.

Id like to see him fight Wlad again just for the sake of seeing the reaction on this board win or lose. Its good entertainment.

The 9th round was brutal. However, Luan came out punching with his last amount of energy, IMO, why he had his hands completely down just before the final knock down. He didn't even try to cover up. But he connected to Brewster's jaw! However, Brewster could feel it had no more weight behind it and let Luan use up all he could muster and then he just swung away at a defenselss Luan.

And what's with Luan's cornerman still standing by the ropes during the 9th? Was he about to throw in the towel? - coz he never did.

On that German site they show the final seconds of the 8th round and the 9th round of the fight. In the 9th round Krasniqi stopped defending himself. He dropped his gloves and was just looking at Brewster and Brewster hit him with a straight right hand that ended it.
