Kubrat Pulev wins by UD over Gbenga Olouken
from fight news:
WBO #9 heavyweight contender Gbenga Oloukun (17-3, 10 KOs) was surprisingly upset by “The Cobra” Kubrat Pulev (3-0, 2 KOs). The Bulgarian boxer confidently controlled the bout and his punches were by far more effective. Oloukun, who won over former WBO heavyweight champion Lamon Brewster just two fights ago, could do nothing to disrupt Pulev. The Bulgarian took the first couple of rounds to adjust to the Nigerian’s style but then started to dominate with his superior technical assets. Fight news had it 60-54 for Pulev, who made a quantum leap up in class in this fight.
Wow! This was just Pulev's third pro fight! And he has an exciting, aggressive style (surprisingly poor defense though) so he's a fine addition to the heavyweight division.Comment

He can't unless he KO's Valuev, which is highly unlikely.

Heavyweight Robert Helenius (10-0) defeated Taras *****ko by TKO. The doctor stopped the fight between the 3rd and 4th rounds.
Cruiserweight Alexander Frenkel (21-0) stopped Kelvin Davis in the first round.
Cruiserweight Francisco Palacios (19-0) defeated DeLeon Tinsley by first round TKO.
from fight news:
Hard-hitting unbeaten Boricua Francisco Palacios (WBC/WBA #3 and IBF #13) proved both his cruiserweight ranks and punching power against American veteran DeLeon Tinsley (9-5-1, 5 KOs), stopping him in the first round. Heavily tattoed Palacios (19-0, 12 KOs) took his time to evaluate his foe, then connected hard with a brutal left hook, that iced Tinsley momentarily, finishing him with a straight right cross in an immediate follow-up. Tinsley rose on the wobbling legs but was too dazed to continue, forcing referee to halt the action after just two minutes of this puglilstic affair. Next for Palacios, 32, can be a major fight against much tougher opponent than this 38-year-old journeyman.
Up-and-coming WBC #10 and IBF #14 сruiserweight contender Alexander Frenkel (21-0, 17 KOs) annihilated former IBF cruiserweight champion Kelvin “Koncrete” Davis (24-11-3, 17 KOs) in the very first round. Frenkel beat Davis to the punch with a series of shots both to the head and body. Davis was not visibly shaken, but referee Ingo Barrabas stopped this fight a bit early at 2:07 of the first. Another sound statement on Frenkel’s behalf, while Davis should seriously consider retirement after another blowout.
Finnish heavyweight Robert Helenius (10-0, 6 KOs) followed Kubrat Pulev by making his step up as well. Helenius took on Ukrainian stylist Taras *****ko (26-4, 12 KOs) and stopped him in three bloody rounds. The Finnish fighter controlled the action from the outside with his hard jab. He also used a left hook to cut the Ukrainian’s face badly in different spots though *****ko was never been seriously rocked throughout the fought rounds. However, the bout was stopped between the third and the fourth rounds as *****ko, who was destroyed by Denis Boytsov in his last fight, was bleeding too much to be allowed to continue.Comment
