    Eh.
    I prefer how they do it in MMA.
    "Fight back! You have to fight back!"

    I don´t like it when fighters are forced into defensive shells and the refs just wave it off. Give them a chance or at least tell them that a stoppage is about to happen. Because when you are shelling up, you can´t tell if the ref is about to wave it off. You are focused on adapting and looking for your opportunity.

    This or Zhang would be great for Hrgovic. No complaints about either one.

    Not sure he is a hype job per se. He has a fan base because he is big, hard hitting, likable, and takes whatever fight he can get. I don't think anyone really believes that he is the next big thing.

    I would wager Whyte, Ortiz, Parker and Hrgovic would go the distance. So would probably Zhang, Usyk, Sanchez and Kabayel.

    People chuck that word around way too loosely. Always been the case.

    Bakole stops all 3 but loses a competitive decision to Hrgovic. Usyk beats him wide UD, Zhang is a close fight. Bakoles defense isn't quite as bad as Joyces and he has decent engine with high volume. Close to a 50/50 maybe slightly leaning Zhangs was based on recent performances.

    Whyte won't fight Bakole. Neither will Dubois.

    Against other big offense minded heavies Bakole has a good shot but Usyk would make him look silly with his footwork and angles imo
