    It was the Edwards fight, but that's not that bad since Edwards also KO'd Jack and badly hurt Dirrell in the last round of their fight.

    Korobov was battering Edwards and waded in recklessly and got caught with a huge right counter right on the sweet spot as he was trying to finish him. The fact Korobov managed to remain vertical after eating that, as he did after Andy Lee cracked him flush with his pet right hook in the middle of an exchange, is a testement to the strength of his beard. He's never been down AFAIW

    When ur a high risk fighter, got take low pay fights, and more of em.

    Could have gotten some better fights if he'd have taken a low-ball offer or two.

    Too inactive for me.

    Lee's right hook is one of the most devastating punches in boxing when it lands flush. Amazing punch.

    It is. Hard to think of a sweeter right hook KO than this.

    There's a reason Manny was so high on him - he probably underachieved but the Korobov win definitely would have made his mentor smile.

    I'm waiting for Korobov to reemerge at Cruiser and start beating top 15 guys to set up his destined showdown with Maxim Vlasov in the ultimate battle of "Rehabilitated Longtime Russian Talent Wasters".

    ...but in the meantime, yes Daniel vs. Matvey sounds great.

    Yes. I was watching this short HL of Lee vs Peter Chocolate earlier. Lee's always dangerous and often fun to watch.

    That ruined Quillin. Also gave Saunders the hardest fight of his career despite being down twice. For anyone wondering... I'm a massive Lee fanboy and will turn anything into a positive if I can. :lol:

    Yes. Lee's also a very nice guy, too. He's your quintessential English gentleman

    Korobov is irrelevant since end of 2014. He hasn't done anything since, not even scored a ko win since 2014
    Jacobs is a top contender at MW. Jacobs should fight Canelo, GGG, Charlo, Saunders, Murata or Derevyanchenko

    Korobov should fight other washed up guys like Mundine, Soliman or Rosado
