    Steiglitz TKO Abraham???

    I heard Steiglitz was born in Russia but have no idea if he boxed in their system or when he moved to Germany or how he got that Germanic sounding name???

    HELP!!!

    Kovalev may have also been an underdog vs Campillo!

    Yep, people was raving about Campillo because he schooled Cloud (at that point people didn't know Cloud was ****).

    I believe Demetrius Andrade is fighting a Russian for a title in July. Interesting.

    You also forgot Grachev upsetting Erdei. He's gotta be the biggest overachiever in boxing. Real crude, yet already beat 4 undefeated guys, and a close one vs Bute.

    Baysongurov is Chechen! He's about as Russian as Arafat was Jewish.

    EDIT;

    I know Provodnikov is a Mensi and not Russian either but considering the current events in Boston, I just felt like outing a Chechen...

    If Bahktin gets a shot at Rigondeaux, possible upset.

    Disagree it was a robbery, just a real close fight that Erdei could have dominated if he'd thrown more punches, but he got outthrown by a lot. I was surprised Grachev won though

    His first name is Sergei.

    - late 2012 Allakhverdiev over Guzman was a very good one

    - I'm hoping Alekseev makes the most of his title shot and upsets YPH at CW.

    - Kovalev over Campillo was the biggest imo

    Grachev won a round though, I guess they awarded the winner based on that round.
