Yeah, getting legit KOed once doesn't undo all of his previous accomplishments. Hopkins got KOed, too. I guess he was never any good either?
Holding would help him survive round 7. He would then take more punishment in round 8 and get knocked out. This wasn't an accident. He got tired.
I think Chilemba knocks out Saturday's poorly conditioned Kovalev.

I gotta see round by round compubox to make sure I'm not crazy, but I thought Pacman was landing flush shots all night long whereas Horn was...
