    Heard a few rumblings that he was prone to a drink or two which obviously can hinder training.

    He had trouble getting fights prior to this, I'm not sure people will be any more keen to fight him now. He did excellently considering he was training for a 10 rounder (EDIT: THINK IT WAS ACTUALLY AN 8) at 162.

    As for the Lee loss, I mean yeah it's not a good L but the way it came about is kinda OK in a sense. Korobov was winning the fight handily but that Lee Hook is an absolute murder weapon

    Because Korobov didn't train as hard as Lomachenko and Golovkin. His stamina was always suspect in the pros because of that.
