Alexander Povetkin Wins By KO Without Landing A Clean Punch

The highest Ring Magazine-ranked boxer in “action” last weekend was Russian heavyweight Alexander Povetkin although it’s not as if his opponent Taurus Sykes actually wanted to fight. Povetkin, Ring’s #5 heavyweight, won by KO in the fourth round. Sykes spent the entire fight grasping and holding. When the White Lion finally managed to graze him with a punch Sykes floundered to the ground refusing to get up. And to think I was angry that this fight wasn’t being broadcast on U.S. television.

If you can actually find a legitimate knockout punch then you have a better eye than me. A youtube video of the fight’s third and fourth rounds is enclosed below.
