I always have liked Cory and rooted for him I had my doubts about his chin against a guy like Karamizin a hard clean puncher and Honestly a few times I was holding my breath thru this fight at some moments...Cory did a great Job of befuddling Karamizin up until the 8th or 9th Roman is a volume puncher but stamina wasnt an issue it just took him time to adjust to Cory and Cory to start slowing down I have no problem with the desicion at all I think he dominated the early rounds and just confused the Daylights out of Karamizin...I think the announcer said it best if it was a 15 rounder Cory would of lost

I was more than satisfied with this fight Cory moved up in weight and took it to the champ and down the stretch he was tired and on his bicycle but he showed alot of heart... Good win for him
