    how could sturm gassed out after round 5, when he was throwing like 3 power punches and 10 jabs each round? He beat Cotto's record...

    While I do agree Sturm is older, Sam is no spring Chicken himself so lets save the shot excuses for later Sturm has not faced any real threats in his day, had he faced the top Middle weights back in his time such as Taylor, Pavlik, AA, Hopkins, or any of those guys you wouldnt have over rated him the way you are

    Didnt say that I said Soliman is no spring chicken he has been in the game a while himself

    Sturm is older, he isnt the same Sturm that fought DLH do you get what I am saying?

    "Ring Wear" or "Ring Age" is more relevant than actual age, this sport is brutal and not very forgiving.

    A five foot eight mw who is 40 years old and relies on a high output providing a route to another world title shot and allowing sturm to continue to duck legit opposition? Yeah I'd say that's a cherry pick.

    No. I think he is saying that people keep saying that Sturm is shot. However, Soliman is 39 and well away from his prime.

    I think he is implying that prime for prime Soliman wins anyway

    Oh okay. He isn't. Well i think prime for prime Soliman wins

    Lol. Nice. Always liked Soliman remember him giving Winky hell! Soliman will fight anyone unlike Sturm's chickenass. If GGG is part of K2 he should take Sturm's spot easy and be huge in Europe AND America.

    What I am saying is Sturm is older than he was when he fought DLH he is older, obviously, and it showed.
