“Alfelt: the Ring would burn, and the burned”
“HAMBURG. What a match!”
“the Ring would burn, had Sven promised. As it burned.”
“Sven Fornling made it less than anyone could have faith in. He is the new world champion in the light heavyweight.”
“After a match that should have taken over already in the first round when both he and Karo Murat looked at the floor. Plus a final round that Sven does not remember anything from. In round after round in between fed Sven in the right-left combinations that irritated, confused, and above all exhausted IBO champion Murat.”
“Murats wild swings came more often. The fatigue caused by the flurry of strokes must have felt in every single muscle on him. Search for knockoutläget became ineffective. Murat struck after the stop and after the bell. He struck in the neck. It was from round three onwards a match on Sven Fornlings conditions.”
“A match just so that the supertränade Malmökillen wanted it to be. Murat saw the faint out but then he got into a couple of types at the beginning of the eleventh round. Suddenly there was strength and power there again. Flames sent Him off a blow in the nape of the Fornling who got some much needed rest while the judge admonished the opponent.”
“the Twelfth round, it was cruel.”
“Murat hunted and met with the rock hard kind. Sven tried to dance away, but hardly knew the longer he was inside a boxing ring. “
“the survival instinct set in and he managed in some strange way, keep your legs time out.”
“– his Stubbornness, he said himself when he submerged on a chair after medical supervision slowly came back to his usual self again.”
“With all the drama overall, it was still a clear victory with all three domarrösterna for Sven Fornling now stepped into the absolute top in the world in which we already have Badou Jack. John and his promoter Erol Ceylans drömmotståndare, but as always, I think it is unnecessary to tussa together two good swedes before they have given themselves the chance to collect all the other världsmästartitlar first.”
“the Match is one of the most dramatic I’ve seen with a Swedish boxer at this level and it was easy to feel with Sven when he cried of joy and relief in the ring immediately after the match. He has trained so hard to become the best at something he does not have any special conditions for when he started to box.”
“Sven Fornling showed what will and determination can achieve if you are prepared to pay the price as a total devotion in such a tough industry that boxing requires.”
“Now it’s all about management opportunities as a världsmästarbälte in one of the five major boxningsorganisationerna gives him. Man is not always rich on to win a world title, but it definitely gets on to defend the title a few times.”
“That all boxers have Sven dreamed about getting the box at the classic stadiums in the world. Las Vegas looms so clear and the tenders will drop in. Still will champion Eleider Alvarez (WBO), Artur Beterbiev (IBF), Dmitry Bivol (WBA) and probably also the färske Oleksandr Gvozdyk (WBC) to see a unknown Swedish without knockoutslag as a safe inkomstmatch regarding the two titles.”
“but maybe they should ask Karo Murat of how it really was up there in the burning ring. Sven Fornlings quick feet and quick hands, showed that he can break down even opponents of the highest class.”
