    Big overhand right ends it for Hutchinson, nice KO!

    Round 4

    Hutchinson feints a jab and delivers a plunging windmilled right hand into Maderna's temple and drops him VERY hard as Maderna was trying for a wide counter left hook. Maderna tries beating the count but shaken up and rightly waved off.

    KO4!!!

    Hutchinson is talented and he does look impressive offensively with those fast hands of his and he carries a dig in them too. The KO defeat, as with Itauma, does raise questions about his whisker strength though.

    Gonna be honest, wasn't blown away but Hutch skill-wise. He's clearly a level above Itauma overall, especially in the chin & power department (thus a far better result against their common opponent Maderna) but I'm not sure he's a superior boxer. Quite a bit sloppier, looser puncher and more defensively careless.

    Was just having a cheeky look at that myself, obviously his chin isn't cast iron but the loss to Lennox Clarke to me looked more the result of just horrible positioning & ring IQ, and that cocky habit of carrying both hands low.

    Worrying signs as Maderna seems concussed and has to lay down, he didn't take excessive punishment but that last shot was a heavy shot right behind the ear and he was dropped hard

    Clarke sports a low KO% but to be fair, as you say, Hutchinson offered him his chin on a platter and Clarke did have everything behind that shot IIRC

    Willy acknowledges that he feels he could have fought a little better and took some unnecessary punches. He dedicates the win to his uncle Mike and offers his well-wishes to Maderna (whom the girl interviewing gives an update on, en route to hospital and doing okay).

    Burton has really been a disappointment for me in how his career turned out, when I first saw him in 2016 he looked like a very technical and fast fighter with decent power as well but somehow he's unable to put it all together in fights that really matter and folds under pressure easily.

    This announcer sounds like a Brit Ludwig Kaiser.

    Zorro walked out to some rap song that begins with like a minute long sample of Tony Soprano dialogue. :dunno
