    Ordered by the WBO. Loma-GRJ set a precedent, we might see another purse bid between GBP & TR.


    I'm assuming Quillin would take the fight. Jacobs is fighting Fletcher, that might be a "unification" (re: they're fighting for the lowly regular WBA belt) down the road but not in the immediate future I don't think.

    Quillin UD for me.

    If Korobov went all out and applied all the smart pressure he could in the ring through footwork and punch volume, maybe... but I don't think he will.

    Korobov is the one fighter close to the top that Quillin can actually beat.

    I would favour Quillin.
    The only thought I have is would Quillin win inside the distance or not, and I think he would get the stoppage

    Quillin isn't all that, but he beats Korobov. he doesn't do it easily, Korobov puts up a fight and has a few moments, but Quillin gets the decision.

    not that bad of a fight if i'm honest. Quillin doesn't want to fight the best and always has an excuse, but i won't turn my nose up at this. should be decent at the very least.

    quillen by tko ko because korobov will gas out and have a heart attack in the corner. quillen ain't all that but he has enough power to throw korobovs game off and tire him the **** out.

    You're crazy, man. It's the other way around. Quillin is the one fighter close to the top that KOROBOV can beat. Quillin's stamina isn't great either and he's so damn easy to hit. I actually favor Korobov in this match-up.

    I think Korobov is just too damn inconsistent, whereas Quillin can be cagey when he boxes.

    If it goes into the trenches, Korobov KHTFO.....but I think Quillin will box off the back foot and keep Korobov honest with the counter L hook.....

    Korobov just cannot fight hard for 12 rds, and Quillin has shown he can bang or box, so long as he aint getting banged back.

    Quillin by 116-112 type decision.:think

    Judges just turned in their scorecards. They gave it to Quillen.

    I go back and fourth on this fight. His stamina issues in the Uzcategui fight are being exagerrated, he simply didn't press the action as he's done in numerous fights. He fought an arguably more dangerous opponent in Edwards more aggressively and went for the stoppage late in their fight. I don't think his stamina will be a factor against Quillin, atleast no more than Quillin's is for him.

    Korobov has the better ring generalship. He's better at moving around the ring, better at pacing himself and recognizing situations. I'd say they have equal power and similar chins & recovery. Quillin was thoughly outboxed by N'Dam and being walked down by Rosado. Quillin was also unable to move in on Konecny. I could see either guy getting a UD. Quillin takes it if Korobov falls to inactive, otherwise I'll take Korobov to win, which given his first title fight I think he'll be amped up for it. Either way I look forward to this fight.
