    Default U gotta watch this! Lamon Brewster vs Sergei Liakhovich.



    Best HW fight of the last decade. Trust me. Its worth setting aside half an hour for. Insane fight once it get's going around 4/5....probably ruined both men! Massive respect to both fighter's....Great title fight.

    Brewster made three successful defenses of his WBO title before being pitted against Sergei Liekhovich. This was not a fight surrounded with a lot of buzz or huge expectations. As such, this action-packed slugfest exceeded any and all expectations, much to the delight of boxing fans. This crowd-pleasing encounter was a great display of heart and guts from both fighters. Liakhovich demonstrated the superior skills, but what Brewster lacked in skills he made up for through sheer determination. The two warriors bludgeoned each other in a give and take battle. Liakhovich was forced to take a knee in round seven after Brewster unleashed a vicious barrage. Despite being down, Liakhovich battled back and appeared to have better stamina down the stretch. His superior skills and conditioning were enough to win in the eyes of the judges as Liakhovich was awarded a twelve round unanimous decision with the final cards reading.

    That the one where Brewster was blind in one eye after round one? They should have fought a rematch to see if a two eyed Brewster fairs better.

    He never really recovered from that fight and eye injury.

    brewster was a very exciting heavyweight champion. It was a shame his career went the way it did, but when you sign with Don King be prepared to fight once a year. If he was around nowadays Golden Boy would have snagged him up and he'd have fought on HBO every few months win lose or draw probably.

    Along with byrd and brock probably the best american HW of the klitscho era (certainly for the earlier parts of it anyway) chambers, thompson, kingpin johnson, seth mitchell etc are the better ones of more recent years. Brewster is so underrated it's insane! How he ever lost to shufford etc il never know!! I think that at his best, he was a bit of a dreadnought for anybody to deal with. Not great, but had some decent attributes. Mercer v brewster is a fight i would have happily payed for....

    Golota vs Liakhovich would have been closer. Vitali would have had Golota out early, Wlad would have bossed him around and stopped him in the middle rounds....would have been fun to watch though. Golota needed time to warm up and if he got popped early he never recovered.

    If Golota had his head together he could have been a GREAT fighter. But we're speaking about reality, and although he had the skills I doubt he beats either klitschko. He did bust bowe up twice though.

    On a side note: Tim Witherspoon said Golota is the hardest puncher he has ever fought!

    Don't have to watch it, since I was there.

    I took my son to see his first live fight, and it was a good fight to take him to. We were on our feet for most of the fight. He loved it.
