"exchanging hard punches and both seemed stunned by the other Going into round eleven, the bout seemed dead even, with Povetkin winning the last couple of rounds." That's from fightnews Any truth to the fight being even? or that Povetkin was stunned by Byrd?????
povetkin only has like 14 fights, but nonetheless, he didnt impress me much against an old ass byrd. i dont care if he won the gold at superheavy, he's not beating vladimir who's much bigger than him.
They exchanged openly a couple of times and in those situations Povetkin had to re-set his stance after Byrd landed a punch but I didn't see him hurt at all. I missed the first four rounds but after those Povetkin was clearly in command, Byrd might have taken one round but that's all. No way had they stopped it like that had it been an even fight
His Royness and I know him. He´s the German Kellerman, huge fan of boxers like Jones, Byrd, Mayweather, Winky wtc. He posted on this board a few times. :eeeek:
I wasn't watching closely and missed the first rounds, but I thought Byrd was competitive, not an even fight, but to me, it seems he took a couple of rounds, but he was starting to get tagged in the last few rounds.
