    If Austin is schooling this guy with a jab, imagine him in there with Vitali in a few more fights.

    Round 3

    Austin leans on Stiverne, pressing him against the ropes. Now Austin steps back out and jabs. 1-2-3 by Austin as he steps in and backs Stiverne up. Now Austin slides his feet away a couple of inches at a time, jabbing smoothly. Short left hook inside by Stiverne. Austin watches him, left held low. Jabs to the body and head by Austin. Double jab by Austin. They exchange jabs and Austin's much longer left zings home while Stiverne's is hung up in the air before him. Stiverne gets jabbed right on the chin. HARD chopping right by Austin behind the jab. Stiverne is trying to hustle inside and work some high shot while Austin is punching but lacks the speed. Hard double jab and a right hand by Austin. Stern warning from the ref to Austin, with a caution that he is about to take a point. (Holding and hitting, I think). Clinch. Austin works an uppercut on the inside.

    30-27 Austin

    Austin does sort of look like Nate Campbells head on 90s george foreman body.

    28-28 Austin. Extra point lost for Austin.

    Bother fighters tentative to open the third. Stiverne less reluctant to let his hands go now. Austin sticking the jab again. 3 punches from Austin. Stiverne just misses with a big right. More point scoring jabs from austin, then a good right. Austin actually starting to look like a veteran in there (never though I'd say that). Few more punches land for Austin. Another Austin round. One point being taken from Austin for punching after the bell.



    30-27 Austin

    29-27 After the point deduction from Austin, for using his shoulder.
     
  6. LOL @ the shoulder check from Austin

    Wait, the ref just took a point from someone after the bell. :?

    edit: it was from Austin, who simply rammed into Stiverne with his shoulder as he was walking by en route to his corner. Hardly a foul. You see that same thing on basketball courts without whistles being blown (and the modern NBA is much softer than boxing ought to be).

    GAY!

    So 29-27 Austin

    He lost most of the round but not that decisively, then he got hurt at the end. It was enough to give Stiverne the round but I don't fault you scoring it for Austin.

    Austin that was not necessary. Use your head. Austin looks kind of tired. Stiverne maybe will be coming on.

    Heavyweights only throw one punch at a time, its painful to watch. Even the worst 80s heavyweights at least put punches toghether
