    He could be so much better, even though he’s winning the rounds, he’s taking so much punishment unnecessarily in the process.

    I’m surprised Abel Sanchez couldn’t unlock Hrgovics’ classy potential.

    Great performance by Hrgovic, although: 1. he started dropping his hands when he got tired, and 2. i don't get why he kept trying after the round where he got hurt. He should have spent the last two rounds on a bike, he didn't need to win them.

    I have far more respect for Adeleye after this than Hrgovic. Showed some real fire but sadly came up short.

    Hrgovic rabbit punching and smothering gassed out of his ass as usual. He's simply not world level.

    Is it Ball vs Goodman next, then Itauma vs Whyte? Wasn't there going to be another fight in between?

    Well, I predicted that Adeleye would win most of the later rounds and make it a bit close on the cards, but I was right in predicting that it would go the distance.

    Hrgovic´s gas tank is still ass.

    Maybe this is the 'unearthing'. He's just bang average.

    Oh well, glad to be wrong here, but Hrgovic is so damned unpredictable. But he clearly took something positive away from his win over Joyce. It certainly helped that David is still brutally inept.

    On my way back home to watch the main event fight. From the sounds of it looks like the gamble to fight Hrgovic has not paid off.

    The only real positive was Hrgovic's conditioning. Still throws a ton of arm punches, too easy to hit, too reliant on his iron chin and leaves himself wide open and that dirty billy goat Dubois has probably ruined Hrgovic's career because those cuts will keep reopening
