hoping for a murat knockout

I got nothing. What, Fres Oquendo isn't unavailable tomorrow ;D:-X. Pulev is going on 45 yrs old ffs. Still think this is just a formality type fight to route Moses to his first title crack, but only if Gassiev wins big.

Usmonov is fitter and too skilled for Maxi Hughes.

Slow first round from both but Pulev forcing the action and winning the fight so far.

Gassiev just knocked out Pulev with a short emphatic left hook in the 6th round. That came out of nowhere and Murat becomes the WBA champion.

Moses Itauma would have an easy nights work picking up this title.

It was a decent and close contest because of the way the fight panned out.

Gassiev was terrible until he landed that knockout punch.
