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 goneOriginally posted by Nautilusyou mean they didn't grow up in the Soviet Union?
..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.Originally posted by KarpatyRussia was a republic in the Soviet Union.

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.Comment

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.Originally posted by Manny_PI kinda was feelin fo Byrd cuz that was a beating. To Byr'ds credit, he has heart and a good chin. Yea he got Koed, but he got up on both KD's EARLY despite how hard those punches were. Other contenders woulda gotten KOed in that 5th round punch easy. Byrd showed heart.Comment
