    I guess there's a payday here but feels like hunter's time as a serious contender is over

    I haven't watched the fight since it happened I don't remember it being a schooling but he definitely did not capitalize after that performance

    To be fair to Hunter it seems on instagram he’s been calling for serious fights, even gunning for a Bakole rematch who nobody really wants a piece of. He has to get out there and make money.

    Hardy is on a fast track to CTE. This will likely be his 3rd time being stopped this year and before that he was on a 3 fight steak of TKO losses in the UFC.

    Freak show. Would be hilarious if Hardy bum rushes him and knocks him out cold like he did to Haseem Jr. Never expected that tbh, and it would be the second son of a boxer. What a strange fight for Hunter to come back to, I guess I get it.. he's more than likely making a load of cash to beat someone not on his level?

    Hunter is pissing his once promising career down the toilet. I used to really like how he'd take risks but since he left Matchroom his quality of opposition has been disgraceful.

    Id be interested to know what his pay was like under matchroom vs whatever promotions he's been fighting under since leaving.

    He got benched by his promoter to protect the bigger cash cows in my opinion

    It's part of that combat league in which he is active. Hunter actually picked up a loss against Devon Young last weekend.

    8-4 or 7-5 clear to hunter. They were protecting adyms boy dillion and it backfired.
