Not quite the fight of the year that it's been hyped as.
Klassen, from South Africa, largely outclassed St Clair. St Clair is tough, rugged and an honest pro, but Klassen was fantastic.
No power - as with the best from SA (Brian Mitchell, Vuyani Bungu) - but terrific flair, workrate, fitness & punch variety.
This man is good. Stylistically is similar to Joan Guzman but without the constant pauses for breath & fresher.
I feel sorry for Alex Arthur, if he lands a fight with him!

That fight was about two years ago. Klassen has slipped down a few rungs since then. He lost his title to Fana who lost to Baloyi.
