Chris is good and put as much as he can but was outclassed by Giorgio who still is doing very well. Giorgio connected very nice kicks and knees combined with excellent boxing skills displayed mainly in the last two rounds. However, i noticed Giorgio a little bit slow and too captious in the first round as never before.
