    Actually thought the first round was close, Yoka blocked a lot of the punches bur Hergovich took the next two clearly, bad decision.a

    Neither Joyce, Yoka or Hrgovic have fought a pro fight against an opponent with a losing record.

    It wasn't quite a RJJ in Korea level robbery but it was a fight that no one with integrity could score for Yoka.

    Kudos to both for putting their O’s on the line against each other. The goons at 135 should take notice.

    Leaning towards Hrgovic by late stoppage while being down on the scorecards. This is mainly because the stamina issues Yoka showed against Jonathan Rice. If It’s improved, which It may well have considering the Rice fight was over 4 years ago, I can see Yoka grabbing a decision in a rather lackluster fight.

    Upon reflection
    I am still leaning towards Yoka to win this as it stands today

    I think that Hrgovic's bad opponents so far will reflect badly on the upcoming fight with Yoka while Yoka has a psychological advantage and after all Yoka has beaten better fighters in his professional career, many said that Hrgovic even stagnated, I'm not entirely convinced that Hrgovic can win...

    Hrgovic didnt look good in his last few fights. Maybe he just lacks motivation against these tomato cans. Looked gassed after 2-3 rounds, getting hit way too much.
