    I could see him wanting to take the knee to get his bearings, and knowing it was a froegone conclusion, he could have simply went on defense for the final round and finished on his feet for the decision loss.

    Disappointed in his resolve moreso than in his inability to get off. :-(

    Pretty much the same like the Dimitrenko fight. The only difference Ustinov got beaten up a lot more

    Pulev is a legitimate contender to Wlad now, no doubt about that.

    The guy is waaaay too heavy.

    If Ustinov came in at around 260 or so he would definitely have made the fight more competitive, or maybe even win it. We saw him have some success in the middle rounds when he was a little more fresh.

    The dimitrienko win is much better than that. Pulev is probably the top heavyweight apart from Wald I don't think it ends well for him if he moves on to Wald.
