    At least he somehow forced a stoppage at the end

    It has literally taken him 12 rounds to beat a punching bag.

    Round 12

    Hrgović is about to collapse, throwing weak telegraphed pinball-launchers at the body. He rams McKean across the ring and then blasts him with a looping right, then another, causing McKean to spin into the ropes, doubled over them, hurt badly. Ref allows him to right himself, turn and beat the count but Hrgović is waiting to dust him off.

    TKO12!

    McKean wobbling across the ring was the longest amount of time he's gone in this fight without hugging Hrgovic.

    Helenius has been rotten so long that he is no longer garbage. Robert Helenius has become compost.

    3-4 shots behind the back of the head, refs a joke.....should be ruled a DQ.

    Replay shows 2 or three solid punches to back of head leading up to stoppage

    Pretty sure Hrgovic won by rabbit punches.

    Yup, replay confirms it.

    Usyk-Hrgovic has to be one of the most unnecessary fights ever. Hrg doesn't win a ****ing second.

    Hrgovic gets the stoppage via rabbit punch.

    I have no horse in this race but Hrgovic landed an insane amount of rabbit punches.

    Kind of crap that kills fighters.

    these are big dudes. You let Wilder hit an average person in the back of the head it would kill them.

    Hrg needs to fight 3-4 times and start running up & down hills, get that shitty cardio up. Inactivity and lack of motivation seem to be a problem. Wasted years, not ready for Usyk. Like to see him vs AJ or Wilder though.

    I saw 2 rabbit punches in that sequence.

    The ref lost control at the end. He should have warned about the holding instead of allowing Hrgovic to throw punches at close range.

    I know he was gone but I thought that was poor refereeing. Should've given him a standing 8 and then had a look.
