It's all too easy for Wladimir Klitschko.
Wladimir Klitschko defended his World Titles by stopping Jean-Marc Mormeck in round 4 of their heavyweight contest. It was the 50th victory of klitschko's career to end by knockout and his 57th victory overall. Before the contest, many pundits predicted a mismatch. This proved true as Wladimir dominated from start to finish. Mormeck a former cruiserweight champion, was outclassed from the start. He was knocked down in round two but showed good courage to get up and survive the round. Whatever gameplan he brought into the ring failed miserably, he could not cope with the range and power of his opponent. Klitschko said afterwards, "I'm delighted to get the 50th knock-out of my career. I promised and I delivered". Mormeck would have liked to continue, "I was frustrated, I could have continued", he said afterwards. So who next for Wladimir Klitschko?
