I've watched and rewatched the fight several times, either i keep blinking at the wrong time, or you're seeing things.
Yeah it hurts thinking about that fight.... Liakhovich SHOULD have won, and for the sake of the division/history I wish he did. Liakhovich v.s Ibragimov or Klitschko would have been GREAT fights. atsch
I think he would've lost to either, but yeah, he wouldn't have embarrassed himself the way his very fortunate 'conqueror' did.
Yeah. Shame that in hindsight most people remember them both more for their stinkers (Ibragimov with Briggs and Klitschko; Liakhovich with Briggs and Valuev) rather than all their really compelling spectacles (Liakhovich with Brewster, obviously, and the valient showing against Helenius... and Iggy with the Ahunanya or Austin wars...or even old Holyfield, the last time Evander was in a fun/competitive/meaningful fight)
