Yeah, Eddie looked pretty impressive, certainly better than in his fights with Povetkin and Peter. He scored a knockdown in the 7th when he hit Dimitrenko with a body shot that made him go into a corner to get some time to recover (though Alexander didn't actually go down that time), which from the replay looked like an accidental liver shot. Eddie scored another knockdown in the 10th with a good combo which also sent Alexander's mouthpiece flying. I think Eddie quite possibly could've knocked Dimitrenko out in the last couple of rounds had he pressed a little harder, because Alexander was pretty tired and beat up. I haven't seen every one of "Fast" Eddie's fights, but i think this may be the best performance of his career. He still has some work to do before he gets in there for his title shot with Wladimir though.
