| A highlight I made of the two fights fought by Corrie Sanders (Cornelius Johannes Sanders) against the Klitschko Brothers. The first fight .... Despite the fact that he had fought only three rounds in the last two years, the World Boxing Organization sanctioned a challenge to their heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko. On March 8, 2003, Sanders provided a stunning upset in Hanover, Germany by dropping Klitschko four times to snatch the Ukrainian's belt by a second-round knockout. Sanders Won the WBO Heavyweight title. Named The Ring magazine Upset of the Year for 2003. Klitschko down 4 times, twice in first 1, and twice in round 2 The second fight.... Sanders vacated the WBO title in December 2003 so that he could concentrate on a challenge for the vacant WBC belt. The fight took place on April 24, 2004, against Wladimir's older brother, Vitali. He was stopped by Vitali in the eighth round of a fight at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. |
