Wladimir Klitschko vs. Jean-Marc Mormeck

<fight>1642986</fight>
* '''[[International Boxing Federation]] Heavyweight Title''' (11th defense by Klitschko)
* '''[[World Boxing Association]] Super World Heavyweight Title''' (1st defense by Klitschko)
* '''[[World Boxing Organization]] Heavyweight Title''' (7th defense by Klitschko)
* '''[[International Boxing Organization]] Heavyweight Title''' (11th defense by Klitschko)
* '''[[The Ring Magazine]] Heavyweight Title''' (4th defense by Klitschko)

== Notes ==
* Dr. Klitschko wins by fourth round stoppage, a total mismatch over Mormeck, retains WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO World heavyweight titles
* Mormeck, 40, who won a 12 round split decision over [[Timor Ibragimov]] in a 2011 eliminator bout for this opportunity, lacked power. 26-0 [[Seth Mitchell]] then kayoed Ibragimov in 2, a telltale sign.
* Wladimir Klitschko 57-3 (50 KOs) defeats Jean-Marc Mormeck 36-5 (22 KOs) in Germany. Inactivity and lack of power at this weight probably meant Mormeck would do better back to cruiserweight.
* The bout was originally scheduled for December 10th, 2011, but had to be rescheduled as Klitschko was forced to have two operations at the first of the month to remove kidney stones. [http://sports.yahoo.com/box/news?slug=ap-klitschko-mormeckcanceled]
* For Mormeck, who entered as high as a 20/1 betting underdog, it was just the fourth bout at heavyweight and he came in having not fought in 15 months. [http://msn.foxsports.com/boxing/odds/moneyline]
* By the numbers, 40-34 scorecards if Mormeck had survived the fourth round would have meant Mormeck would have had to win all eight of the remaining rounds to win the bout, an impossibility.

== Bout Summary ==
Klitschko dominated the fight throughout. In Round 2, Mormeck went down from a big right hand. In Round 4, Mormeck went down again from a combination. He was able to get to his feet, but the referee waved an end to the bout.

Calzaghe was aggressive from the opening bell but both fighters were very accurate and sharp. Calzaghe had a very good round three as he used his speed to land straight lefts against Kessler. Kessler landed two good uppercuts in round four. Calzaghe started to take control in rounds five and six. In the seventh, Kessler had his best round since round four, landing several hard shots although Calzaghe threw over 100 punches. Kessler was very aggressive in the eighth, trying to turn the tide, but Calzaghe came on at the end of the round. Calzaghe continued to outbox Kessler in round nine. The fighters went toe-to-toe in a very exciting round ten, but Calzaghe seemed to have more in the tank. Calzaghe continued to blunt the desperate attacks from Kessler over the final two rounds to win in front of 50,000+ in attendance.
 

== Comments ==
- In the United States, this fight had the lowest ratings ever for a prime-time [[HBO World Championship Boxing]] telecast on [[HBO]] - 1.591 million live viewers. 
- Calzaghe defends his [[The Ring Magazine|Ring Magazine]] super middleweight world title.
