The Klitschko Effect
[thuh-clee-itsh-co e-fekt] - A strange phenomenon in the Heavyweight division of boxing where a fighter previously considered world class and or top rated, is immediately demoted to the status of "bum" or "worthless" upon losing to Vitaly or Wladimir Klitschko. (ex. Byrd, Lamon, Hide, Arreola, Brock, Chambers, Chagaev, Mahone, Gomez, Johnson, Ibragimov & Peter)
