    When is the Pulev fight on ? I might have a gander at it since it's on early.

    Round 1 Zoirov 10-9
    Round 2 Zoirov 10-9

    Both pretty active, Zoirov more accurate and landing the heavier shots.

    8:45pm according to the sites I checked but I'm sceptical as to whether that's accurate or not

    Round 1 Zoirov 10-9
    Round 2 Zoirov 10-9
    Round 3 Zoirov 10-9

    Zoirov lands a massive left to the temple, which buzzed Finol badly. Finol came roaring back late, not enough.

    I was just going to say that Finol looks flashy and the judges will like it.

    But then Zoirov lands a bomb in round 3 and clearly hurts him, but Finol coming back strong.

    Unless Zoirov can hurt Finol and slow him down, I don’t see how he gets a decision here.

    Round 1 Zoirov 10-9
    Round 2 Zoirov 10-9
    Round 3 Zoirov 10-9
    Round 4 Zoirov 10-9

    Again, the cleaner more compact work and pressure from Zoirov. Finol less active.

    Round 2 Zoirov 10-9
    Round 3 Zoirov 10-9
    Round 4 Zoirov 10-9
    Round 5 Finol 10-9

    Finol now bringing more pressure and far more active. Not all that accurate though

    Round 3 Zoirov 10-9
    Round 4 Zoirov 10-9
    Round 5 Finol 10-9

    Zoirov amping up the pressure again, landed some solid one twos, and timed him with some quality lefts.

    Round 5 Finol 10-9

    Finol's right eye is almost swelled shut. Zoirov is targeting it. Finol still elusive, but Zoirov is timing him well. Thudding one twos from Zoirov.

    By the way, these two are both southpaws.

    Zoirov looks like a step ahead most of the time.

    Zoirov the more consistent of the two, staying on the frontfoot, battering him with one twos. Finol tries to style on him late, not enough.

    Beautiful finish by Zoirov, gave it everything he had.
    Finol looked uncomfortable and scared to commit to his punches.
