    Becoming scrappy. Hrgovic needs to up his volume.

    McKean has him the corner, lands a couple shots, then walks in and smothers himself…but why?

    I wonder how many shots Hrgovic has actually landed that weren't rabbit punches?

    Round 7

    Hrgović is getting lazier & lazier in there. McKean with another strong start. McKean landing left uppercuts on the body almost at will, keeping the right arm extended in Hrgović's face. When they clinch it seems to be Hrgović hanging on to stall for longer. BLATANT rabbit punches in full view of the ref by Hrgović and not a warning. McKean sticking with the working formula, jab or extended right arm up top, followed by a left uppercut downstairs before a clinch.

    10-9 McKean

    68-65 Hrgović

    If McKean would let his hands go, I really think he could possibly win this fight.

    Dempsey's round for me.

    Usyk V Hrgovic is a complete waste of time fight.

    Filip comfortably ahead but looks like he smashed a plate of chevapi before his ring walk and wants to have a lay down.

    Is it a mental block for Hrgovic? as he is clearly five or six levels above McKean, but there is only so long people can make excuses for yet another laboured performance.

    It feels like as soon as he gets a little tired, he can’t seem to perform like you expect him to. It’s like he expects to knock the lad out and can’t perform in the latter half.

    Strange performance again so far

    McKean is turning this fight around.
