But I was also disappointed. I understood why he did it the first half of the fight, but at some point you have to show some fight-winning offense. He did get some good shots in tho. Like you said, he gives everyone at 154 hell

Dream scenario for me = him vs. Fundora, then Tszyu for undisputed (Murtazaliev vs. Tszyu was just ordered)
