    He took a lot of shots from the big punching Whyte. I think he's on his way to the pantheon of granite.

    He took that one flurry by Whyte crazy well.

    Not that uncommon for fighters to walk through a single tough shot or two, but a barrage of shots like that? Impressive.

    He showed a good chin. Need to see more though.

    His covering up and slipping away when caught was actually very good. Most fighters would be finished after that onslaught

    Its his massive steriod infused traps that give him the good punch resistance..

    He showed a decent chin, but he was buzzed more than once in there. Whyte's incredibly sloppy and inaccurate though, and missed a ton of punches that would have put his lights out. That left hook looks like he's swinging a baseball bat.
