    Reading this board full of praise about Scott's performance against Glazkov surprises me. He should've gotten the decision, but it wasn't an awe-inspiring performance to me. Glazkov is a typical Eastern European fighter: strong, hard working and tough but not masterfully skilled, fast or athletic. Both looked contender-level to me. I never really saw Malik as a threat in the ring, nor as an extremely skillful/slick performer. Just a good operator.

    A fight between him and Wlad wouldn't be close.

    No, but he did pretty well, which is why Im honoring my avatar bet :)patsch) even tho he didnt get the w.

    I was pretty impressed with his skills, but the issue with him is that he is too content to outpoint. He doesnt have much power, and he just cruises along without stepping it up and going for th eko. Which is why his ko % is ****.
    He'll beat a lot of guys but ultimately pose no threat to the K bros
