Man Korobov is damn frustrating to watch.

    His career has been a lot like Gary Russell's in that sense. Though he has performed well against some decent veterans like Findley & Duran at the 8 round level and he's now got a couple of big wins against top 20 level MW's in Edwards & Uzcategui.

    I'd be intereseted to see how his sparring sessions with Andre Dirrell went.

    IMO he's not overhyped.

    He is being judged on his potential, now i personally see all of the attributes needed in a world class fighter except for stamina & maybe mental toughness (which frankly we didn't need to see cus no opponent really pushed him that hard).

    I don't see any real holes in this dudes game apart gassing.

    that is exactly what he should do. his breathing should be continuous at all times....and it is not because he makes noises that chop his breathing.

    as for the rigid body thing...there's truth to that. he is tense in spots where he doesn't need to be.

    That was awesome, I didn't realize this existed. Thanks!

    Watching him go through a training camp there's not much questioning his body is well prepared.

    Those guys are the exceptions that prove the rule, no?
    For mere mortals the rule still holds....

    sometimes it's about who they align themselves with too.

    Korobov is a very talented fighter, his stamina was better in his last fight, but he could make his fights much easier if he hired Ariza, or Marquez' steroid expert..............
