      Russia was a republic in the Soviet Union. If you're going to say "Team Russia", might as well say "Team Armenia", or "Team Tajikistan", or "Team Estonia"...etc..as those were all republics..but none of those are even relevant because the USSR is long gone ..Klichkos are Ukrainian, not Russian.

      Anyways, we're getting off topic.

        We have Americans, Ukrainians, Armenians, and Russians on Team Russia. A lot of Russians support Klitscko, which I hope is OK.

              What is "Team Russia"


              But of course, it's ok . Anyone who supports Klichko is good

                  i think klitschko deserves credit - but more importantly manny steward deserves credit. wlad came back from the brink of destruction, and now he is in the drivers seat. he finally delivered the goods. i think manny knows wlad's limitations, and has now improved them. i saw a heavyweight, i haven't seen in years. it was great to see a heavyweight able to throw crisp, straight punches not those looping, wild swinging ones that the majority of the heavies throw today.

                  we, as the viewers, should be very impressed. like it or not, he's the best we got. let's embrace him.

                    Yeah I actually felt bad for byrd after the 2nd round was done because I saw that he wasn't going to be able to make a fight of it.
