    Gassiev had too much punch variety for Dortico and Gassiev stepped to his left avoiding the big right beautifully.

    Classic left hook....the Cuban sure took some punishment but so did Gassiev.

    Gassiev KO's Usyk....he was in the crowd and scared.

    Kind of reminded me of Lebedev against Jones, but this time the larger fighters pressure wasn't enough to eventually turn the tide.

    This. Gassiev was landing uppercuts at will. Dorticos was lucky that Gassiev was very sloppy this fight, since if Gassiev took his time and set one of those uppercuts properly that fight would've been over in the 7th or 8th round.

    This is definitely a FOTY contender. It was a high quality fight with a thrilling finish.

    Excellent.

    If it wasn't official before.. It's official now. Sanchez has his next generation Golovkin in Gassiev. What a performance!

    Dorticos stamina is normal stamina.

    It's gasiev's stamina what's not normal. That dude lost ZERO snap and ZERO power in round 12. That's not normal. No, it isnt, the same way it was not normal that pacquiao could run a marathon after fighting margo. There are things that are not normal, and this night we've seen one of those things. If gassiev fails a test, I wouldnt be suprised not even a little bit. Too too too fishy, way too much.

    Right, let's get one thing straight. That was an absolutely brilliant performance by Gassiev. He won that with brains and brawn in equal measure. Dorticos is a beast and he's one feisty, tough and strong-willed SOB who isn't easily discouraged at all. No Cuban glass in that mandible. Really impressed with Gassiev tonight he's a hell of a fighter.

    Dorticos though!

    That's a bonafide @SNV level chin. He's clearly still hurt and emotionally devastated. No quittage in him. Great, great heart. But not enough skill tonight!

    Don't worry he won't, Usyk gauged the power of Briedis and realized he could take it, I'm pretty sure he'll play it safe with Murat.

    And just as I've said before.. Gassiev vs USYK would be the final two and is one of the biggest fights in boxing today. Can't wait!
