Wladimir Klitschko (45-3, 40 KOs) won the IBF heavyweight title with a seventh round KO of Chris Byrd (39-2-1, 20 KOs) at the SAP Arena in Mannheim, Germany. It was a battle of jabs in round one with neither fighter doing any damage. Klitschko connected with a hard right in round two. Klitschko won round three fairly handily, landing numerous left-right combinations as Byrd face began to show signs of swelling. Another one-sided round for Klitschko in round four. Klitscho floored Byrd in round five with a right hand, then pummeled him for the rest of the round. Byrd showed great toughness in weathering the attack. Byrd took more punishment in round six and Klitschko continued his dominance. Klitscho floored Byrd again with a series of rights and lefts in the seventh and when Byrd regained his feet, referee Kelly stopped it :41 into the round. Byrd was bloodied and beaten at the end.
