In my opinion the fact that Wlad knew what Manny wanted him to do without Manny telling him is the biggest thing to take away from that fight, I was very proud of my boy Wlad, he did a great job especially once he had Byrd hurt in the 5th he didn't sell out going for the KO he took his time but was going to land power shots anyways. He showed killer instinct but with a conscious of what can happen if you can't KO the guy right then and there.

nice post man. i, also am a big klisthcko fan, and i was very happy with the fight. hopefully wlad wont waste time unifing the titles!
