Cheers

I'm no Russell Grant, but after Peter Crouch scored a hatrick this afternoon I don't think this is going to be a good day for Jamaicans taking on freakish giants

Great round-by-round; surprising result.

boxerrob2005 · Post by **boxerrob2005** » 03 Jun 2006, 16:44

it was a left hook to the head which put him down and the ref stopped him on his feet.

Freiheit · Post by **Freiheit** » 03 Jun 2006, 16:44

IMo that count was very fast.

Sylvester was up at 5. It ruled a TKO8 2:48 into the round.

It's Finland's first European champ in like 40 years.

Valuev seems to do ok with his jab and has a clubbing right that he can drop down, but he seems to do it with the inside of the glove. is that legal?
