Klitschko v Ibragimov - World Heavyweight Title UNIFICATION DRBR

[El Kabong]

I don't know about any other Wlad fans, but I am still a little nervous about Sultan being a southpaw......I really worry about that but mainly that's because of Corrie Sanders, I think Wlad can and SHOULD KO Sultan but I always get nervous before his fights.


GO WLAD!

John Duddy getting a big reception in there, and his opponent looks nervous, and also a little short facing up to him.

Round 1:

Duddy coming out on fire with some good hooks and throwing plenty early on. Body shots are the Duddy staple here so far, but Smichet with three big right hooks has Duddy reeling. The Duddy guard is nowhere, and Smichet is landing at will here and putting Duddy in real bother. 5 left and right wide hooks land flush on Duddy, who is just not moving back. Duddy with some shots of his own, but his oppnent is landing amazing shots here, anda Duddy's cut under the left eye. He's shipping shots like an amateur versus an old pro.

Duddy takes huge punishment.

Smichet 10-9, and there might be a case for calling it 10-8 Duddy was in so much trouble.

[Saddo]

WOW what a first round

Roiund 2

Duddy coming out active, and with a good left hook, then working the body. He's got no defence whatsoever, and personally, Pavlik would eat this guy for breakfast. Smichet is landing time and again, who lands body shots, then right hooks. Duddy needs to box, and get his chin out of the way of Smichet's fists. MSG seems eerily quiet as they all wait to see Duddy put in some more good work. Right hook from Smichet, then a good left from Duddy. Duddy not defending, but dodges two hooks, then lands a couple to the body. Good leading left hook from Smichet, then Duddy with a short right, but Duddy lands again, then dodges some jabs. Big right hook again, and Duddy is in yet another war.

Smichet 20-18. Glad I didn't put anything on Duddy so far.

Round 3:

Duddy starts strong again, with some hooks, then digging hard to the body straight from the bell. Jabs from Duddy, then body shots. Fair play, Duddy much have a chin of solid brick. Smichet is landing right hooks again, and Duddy still not fazed. Duddy jabbing a little, then a gentle body shot, but Smichet gets back a right hand. Duddy boxing a luittle more, or at least using a jab and making some effort to get out of the way. Overhand right from Smichet catches Duddy on the back of the head. Smichet lands to the body. Duddy jabbing, but not following it up with enough work. LEft hook from Smichet, and two big right hooks from Smichet, and Duddy looks rocked. Another right hand, and Duddy is in big bother in there.

Smichet again, despite Duddy improving, he just can't hold together a good round's boxing.
30-27

GO WLAD!

No doubt,Those are hard images to get out of ones mind.Call it chin,call it Stamina,whatever....Sanders the southpaw found him with ease but that was then. I think Wlad will keep Sultan out.

Any links to The Duddy fight ?? anyone?

[The Rela]

Good opening round, but where is JD's defence?

more of the same in round 2.

Duddy blocking punches with his face.

[El Kabong]

.....well he's obviously an Irish fighter

[No Contest]

That how he wears his opponents down they get tired of hitting him in the face and he starts to take over.... I hope

[Dizaster]

That how he wears his opponents down they get tired of hitting him in the face and he starts to take over.... I hope

Could this be true?

[El Kabong]

It's the Homer Simpson/Randy 'Tex' Cobb style of fighting
