Here comes Korobov! The mad, mad, lethal *******. I really hope this guy makes it.

    Korobov has a little cut! Didn't see how he got it.

    Fight is over.

    Not a great performance, for sure. Looked a bit flustered, didn't he? I think that pressure might be the blueprint in the not to distant future.

    actually pretty harsh but not what i was expecting


    no offence to him (as if he ids reading this now) just not a great night for him. did everything well. just a bit sloppy and a bit flustered as you said.

    not completly convincing i think is the better discription

    Probably the first time he ever got a little bit of heat put on him thus he was coping with a new experience. Overall not his greatest performance but nothing to cry about either. Still love this kid.

    Bunce is exaggerating, he had a hard work out, but he was blowing a bit, he was.

    He looked a littlebefuddled by the pressure, he flapped a bit, they were telling him to "use his angles" in the corner.

    the other guy was just awkward and not playing the game. korobov did well popped the jab, nice right uppercut and right hook but still didnt look great.

    I'd give it a C if I had to grade it. Didn't lose a round, differ suffer any major damage but didn't dominate as per the norm. Then again we may be spoiled with him.

    I still say its not good for a fighter to be thrusted into a situation like that... to be fighting essentially the semi-mainevent for big network fight...when they are more or less still learning their craft. Yes he was a highly successful amateur but there are key differences you have to master, one being the pressure and scrutiny that you get from being on T.V fights.

    They should be brought up gradually like everyone else in this early stage...Fair enough they want him to be a superstar but they have to be careful about chucking him into the limelight when he is still fighting in 4 rounders.
