Sturms muscle tone has improved since the oscar fight . I bet if he looked like that back then they wouldnt have chosen him as an opponent

Anyone else watching?

Ring walks at the moment. Being an all-German event both fighters received mixed emotions (loud cheers and almost louder boos) - not exactly like your usual German event

Atmosphere seem pretty electric though.

Missed the 1st, but the commentators seemed to think Sturm won that one. I had Sturm winning the second too.

Neither of them landing much, but a decent tactical scrap between two very European fighters (standing up, long jabs).

[Mikkel_K]

3rd belonged to Sylvester, who pressed the action more and landed a few good shots (left hook, one-two) as well.

30-29 Sturm.

[Mikkel_K]

After round 5, I have it 4-1 for Sturm.

I like Sylvester - he is the more entertaining of the two - but Sturm's jab owns this fight right now.

[Mikkel_K]

Round 6:
Sylvester pressing the action, but not really landing. Sturm not doing anything until the last 30, but he is the better fighter and lands the cleaner shots. Sylvester needs to open up more (or hope Sturm tires).

59-55 Stum

hi mikkel

is this on a live stream link?

Round 7:

Sturm coming forward, but incidentally that means Sylvester landing more. Action picking up. Good stuff. Sylvester pressing the action, Sturm landing in return. Great round. Sturm finishes strong!

69-64 Sturm

[Mikkel_K]

hi mikkel

is this on a live stream link?

Nope, watching it on German tv (main channel), as we get it here in Denmark. Dunno if there are any streams

[Otley]

okay thats cool

thanx for commentary

Sounds like a good fight

[Mikkel_K]

Round 8:

Best round yet. Sylvester is not giving up, coming forward and landing a few as well. Sturm still the better man though, landing at will almost. Great stuff when he finally gets going and goes after Sylvester! Cant blame a guy for being careful, but please do this more!

Sturm leading 7-1 on my card. 79-73
