    I like Demsey but he's getting absolutely battered here because his power is only okay and he's very hittable. Hrgovic by brutal (and most likely one sided) destruction.

    McKean is a likable young lad but he is getting bodied in this one no matter where it is.

    McKean would be better off fighting Paul Gallen

    Honestly i dont care if Hrgovic is fighting a double cheese current bun. He just has to stay active.

    Yeah agree with the comments here. McKean is a brutal KO waiting to happen imo. He got badly hurt by Johnathan Rice and struggled in his last fight against a low level NZ journeyman Kiki Tom Leutele.

    This ends badly for McKean.

    I thought he might have sat on his ranking for a little longer and waited for a big offer from Huni.

    Heaps of respect for the man seeing so many guys turned this fight down.

    But as we know mate Queenslanders don't have the strongest chins.

    Well done to Demsey McKean. Stepping up where many others have feared to tread. He was at the point where it's time to cash in his 'O' to the highest bidder & Hrgovich is it. And of course, if he is somehow able to give a good account of himself, he will get other opportunities & paydays.

    The Huni fight & payday will be there for him regardless of the outcome in this one so good on him for having a go.

    Yup, good on him for getting himself into a position for an opportunity like this. I thought Parker's team would line him up somewhere along the line after Fa but went after Chisora instead.

    Hope he can give a good account of himself.

    This fight does nothing for Hrgovic's improving his standing. He needs to be fighting a Chisora or other young guns such as Yoka, Dubois, etc.

    No difference in resume between Dubois and McKean. The biggest difference is that DDD has lost tbh.
