Wladimir Klitschko vs. Alexander Povetkin RBR

Well there you have it. Povetkin is 9 times more popular than Haye.

 

Ruslan Chagaev vs. Jovo Pudar, 12 rounds @ heavyweight

 

The arrangement of this card is very strange.

10-rounder to start, then now a 12-rounder, and next will be the 8-round prospect showcase before the co-feature? :huh

Why not stack it the normal way, 8/10/12/12/12?

 

Round 1

Chagaev is showing the possibility of a right jab and then dropping left hands to the body while taking measured wide steps to his left with his rear foot, spinning to face up to Pudar after planting it. Slow pace. Pudar is reaching out with a long left jab, combing Chagaev's hair with a few but not snapping them.

10-9 Chagaev, uneventful

 

Round 2

Chagaev is troweling at Pudar's guard with his right jab, putting his full weight on the front foot and lurching in a bit. Pudar is backing up and unfurling the left jab softly into Chagaev's face as he comes in. Chagaev is pinning his gloves together around his face tightly and catching Pudar's jabs until he is close enough to raise his own into Pudar's chin. Pudar keeps circling and snapping into position, keeping Chagaev in his sights.

10-9 Chagaev

20-18 Chagaev

 

The BoxNation commentator gave the 2nd to Pudar. :huh

He says the Serb "boxed beautifully".
