I'm pretty confident Usyk is going to win this whole thing. Breidis actually worries me the most. I could see why some think Dorticos or Gassiev are more dangerous because the guys can punch. But I think Breidis has more to his game and he can punch. Breidis has to get past Perez first. Dorticos-Gassiev is a 50-50 fight for me. It's going to be on who can take the other guys punch better. Gassiev looks really sturdy, obviously doesn't mean he has a granite chin, and Dorticos was stopped on a few occasions as an amateur. Also, Gassiev is not just going to stay there and let Dorticos do his thing like Kudryashov did. He is going to make sure he lands some bombs as well. I can't wait for that one. Fun fact: Dorticos and Mike Perez traded victories in the amateurs. Amateurs don't mean anything, obviously, but just a fun fact.

I was surprised and impressed by Dorticos. He has a nice looking record but on closer inspection I thought the KO % flattered him abit because there was no real names on there. His body looked a little soft too. Kudyrashov had already been exposed once and although he carried real power he seemed hopelessly out of his depth in this fight. The Russian got hit with a lot, jab was in his face and a single right hand took him out. Dorticos wouldn’t be denied or intimidated. The semi final with Gassiev looks mouth watering assuming Gassiev wins his next fight which I expect him to. Usyk I expect to win the whole thing but Dorticos has announced himself as a dark horse in this tournament.

Well I learned a lot about Dorticos last night. Glad I picked him, he looks like a ballsy fighter. Would be interesting seeing him against the Gassiev/wlod winner.

Seems like Dorticos is the real deal, but Kudryashov is just a hellacious puncher with a bad defense/chin, Dorticos might actually win the whole thing.

This tourney should have all the attention in the world. Its a stacked division, but as far as North America goes it seems, no one has a clue. These guys are the size of heavyweights of old, full of talent and weve had two great opening fights so far and still some to go, yet no one outside of Europe knows about it or is watching it... :( And it was free online! Glad it was an early knockout so I could watch the Linares fight as well!

Fvck my life for real! I didn't realize that their website had a free stream until I saw a post about it. By the time I got to their site, I was watching a replay of the KO.

Kudryashov woke up after his loss. Have been following him and he has been training hard. ... It's hard to tell how did he wake up... ... Did you notice that these bad dudes, from former USSR, never fight Cubans at the pros?... GGG, Kovalev, etc... :) (Wait: Loma is going to...) ... as I said before the fight!... :)

You see how heavy he was breathing after the first? Yeah, the right hand didn't do nothing. He was gassed that is why he went down. Just to take a break...

How did a past prime Edison Miranda take Dorticos the distance? Lool They're good friends so i think it was a case of Dorticos helping out a friend to make some money and carrying him the full 10 rds too.
