    I find how he has this really unique Australian/Russian accent.

    He sounds exactly like my dad did whenever you hear the Australian element, so I always tend to catch it.

    I really like Kostya. I have his career set on dvd and he was a monster from the day he turned pro.

    The only frustrating thing was that he had a great jab and body attack but he didn't use them often enough. He held out his left as a range finder a little too often and, even when he had success with body shots, he was a little too eager to go back to head-hunting.

    When he went to the body with any sort of consistency (like against Hurtado) he could fold guys in half.

    He was excellent at judging distance and that right hand was a thing of beauty. Tremendous fighter.

    Actually dave parris reffed the fight and put on a clinic on incompetence and bias. U might want to watch that one again.
