some of the finest minds at ESB have said that Sturm is a better fighter at MW than Bernard Hopkins. [url]http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=257163[/url] lets give Sturm his due.
Sturm is the definition of a paperchamp, holding his belt hostage in Germany. I felt sorry for the guy when he got robbed at the time (against ODLH), but he has got so many gift decisions since that he DESERVED to get robbed back then...
Gotta admit i have a lot of love for sturm. I thought macklin probably deserved the decision but i also think it was close and definitely no robbery. Macklin did look ready to go in the last, as did murray actually. Think he pipped murray. But they were both entertaining fights. Aside from that i like watching him. Its strange cos he uses the high guard and doesnt throw many punches but when he does open up he is insanely accurate and very fluid. Real good jab too. Technically very good.
