Wladimir Klitschko TKO2 Ray Austin... Wladimir Klitschko has retained the IBF heavyweight title with a second-round stoppage of Ray Austin in Germany on Saturday. Klitschko made easy work of mismandatory Ray Austin. After an uneventful opening frame, Klitschko connected with four consecutive left hooks that sent Austin crashing face first to the canvas. Austin made it to his feet at nine and a half but the referee wisely waved it off. source: HBO
