    NO. He was getting his ass handed to him, and he caught Hernandez with a great shot. Doesn't do anything for those guys.

    Hernandez was just too unexpirienced and he didn't have enough respect for Braithweights right hand - but Braithweight can punch:bbb

    The fact that enzo battered wayne and he has just beaten another top ten fighter shows wayne wasn't shot and also that haye is a hell of alot better than the rest of the crusierweights.

    No, it just shows Hernandez perhaps doesn't take the best punch. Hernandez got carelss, after having Braithwaite down in the 1st round.

    Hernandez was/is a prospect, not a top 10 CW. On top of that, Hernandez was dominating Braithwaite and appeared to be on the verge of stopping, however Braithwaite caught with him a great temple shot and that was it.

    Of course Haye is the top CW, no argument there (I like Haye, he's an exciting fighter), but this win doesn't do much for him.

    Based on what I saw, in terms of boxing ability I would pick Hernandez over Braithwaithe in a rematch and Hernandez over Enzo too, though Haye would be too much for him at this point.

    This post is the truth.:good

    Hernandes is for real - but he got caught with a lucky punch and he also looked too hesitant to KO Wayne.

    He's number 11 on box rec, 12 ibf, number 13 wbc so he is pretty much top ten

    In some ways it reminded me of Haye-Thompson. The younger, faster, more talended fighter inexperience shows against the old vet who comes back to put him on his ass. I think Big Truck is more like Old Truck these days, he took a beating against Macca and looked pretty shot only his heart got him to the final bell. The same thing he showed in this fight, and the punch is the last thing to go.

    He was completely untested in the pro ranks. Top prospect yes, "top ten" no.
