I've never minded listening to Lennox Lewis, I think HBO fucked up letting him go.

Not much in round 1, Helenius is a big mo-fo.

Late night for the German fans. Ended up going to watch MOTD rather than watch heavyweight boxing, especially after seeing the first part of Povetkin-Chagaev. The best description is a word that rhymes with boozer.

9th round KO for Helenius, not a bad 'W' for Helenius, he's a big guy with heavy hands, who has a future at HW.

Not impressed at all by Povetkin, Teddy is not going to be able to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear, no matter how much he tries to motivate this chump.

The main event was a good and competitive fight. Chag threw the most powerful shots, but Pov let his hands go more and won more rounds obviously, so the decision was fair in my opinion. Pov continues with the same negative things as before: coming in the most important fight ever the heaviest in his career, so he was tired as hell after 5 rounds, his feets are terribly slow and AS ALWAYS he gets hit A LOT. The positive thing about him: You want beautiful punching combinations, just look at his combos, he can land three or four punches in a row and its all just with the left. Chag on the other hand was very prepared for this fight, had a great chance in the 6th, but Povetkin proved he can take a punch that would have floored almost every boxer in the world. Would like to see Chagaev in the scene because he is always a dangerous southpaw puncher and would trouble anyone out there. Povetkin has obviously no business with Klitschko but fighting Haye or Adamek or Chambers would be really good.

I had it 116-112.

Those uppercuts won him the fight. He couldn't miss with them.

Sadly, all of the Heavyweights who fought on this card tonight, are better than the best American HW.

fuck no, LL sucked on commentating, he always found a way to make EVERY fight about him, Jones reminded me a lot of this on the Wlad/Haye fight

I like Lennox, because he knows his shit, sure it's hard for him not to talk about himself, but WTF do you expect, he's Lennox Lewis, one of the best Heavyweights ever.

And, considering the number of times he's been hit upside the head, I believe he does pretty fucking good.
