    Looks like Darmani Rock will be facing Carlos Negron on November 7.

    Even Hughie Fury could actually probably win both of those fights. Peter is probably licking his chops right now.

    Hernandez shamelessly ducked Lebedev and other fighters while active.

    If you want to see shame and corruption, check out his loss to Braithwaite.

    He got a few gift decisions if I remember correctly.

    Chisora fought on equal terms (arguably a slight notch higher prior to the KO) in the 20+ odd rounds he shared with Whyte. Great preparation for Sasha.

    Can’t get much better than that. I hope the Old dog can pull off one more great performance.

    Wouldn’t be surprised if Negron snatched his zero too, after Robert Alfonso. Especially if Rock keeps getting fatter.

    He had loads of problems with his knees and elbows, probably couldn’t train properly. On top of that a financial advisor of his basically put him to the cleaners, which was very discouraging as well. Hernandez worked as a trainer for a while, even coached Erkan Teper for his fight against Wach. Now he says all the physical problems are resolved.
