Exactly, these glancing blows are easily enough to get Dimitrenko to quit

Blatant dive. I wonder how much he's getting paid under the table for it?

Yeah he's turned into the world's largest punching bag. Hopefully he's at least getting paid well for these fights.

There's a few once prized prospects that seem to be in the same boat; Price and Helenius being just a couple. It makes me wonder if they are still genuinely trying to win the fights, or just staying in the game to be decent named (and hopefully well paid) journeymen? Bills have to be paid somehow, and it's hard to re-skill once you get into mid-30's.
