3-2 sturm throwing more landing some, sturm hit him with 3 nice uppercuts though so it close. the cleaner work from sturm but he aint throwing much.
Just when I think the momentum is shifting in Steiglitz favour, back comes Sturm! Sturm has become the grittiest fighter who never gets credit for being gritty.
stieglitz stamina is incredible... taking ton of punches, but giving back some too... difficult to give him the round though, was abused to the body in the end.
Round 6 Stieglitz is working double jabs into the guard and whipping the right hand around the far side. Sturm is backing up, shielding his face, stepping to his right and resetting. Light jabs by Sturm. Stieglitz is spamming the heavy right hand coming forward. Sturm is kept shy. Stieglitz is raining powerful shots on Sturm's guard. Big can-openers by Stieglitz with either hand, knocking Sturm back toward the ropes. Sturm jabs and tries getting in an uppercut, knifing straight into Stieglitz's stance with his left foot. Looping right by Sturm. Clinch. Body whacks both ways. 10-9 Sturm 59-55 Sturm
I wonder how different Sturm’s career would have been if he hadn’t got robbed in the De La Hoya fight? Shocked no ones gone down yet.
Win lose or draw, sturm is boxing fairly well. I guess we'll never know what happened to him in the Soliman rematch....
