    No he did not, Zhang won at best 4 or 12 rounds. Place your round by round score card please. But beware I have access to the pucnh stats in many fights, and will expose bad judging. All the judges gave it to Hrgovic who was " off " for other reasons that night.

    Shut up man. Zhang dominated Hrgovic in most of those rounds but gassed later on. Hrgovic is terrible.

    :D Okay, whatever you say. Hrgovic suffered a quick knockdown for, a blow behind the head combined with a push in round one. Like I said at best Zhang won 4 rounds. I watched the fight and scored it.

    1) The knockdown in round one was a push and shouldn't have been counted. Hrgovic was dominating the round.
    2) The referee was helping Zhang in multiple ways. He kept giving him a rest by clearing the water on the mat (which should have been done between rounds).
    3) Hrgovic scored a knockdown that the dodgy referee did not count.
    4) The DAZN commentary was very biased in favor of Zhang. When Hrgovic landed several clean shots they were silent, but whenever Zhang landed a single counterpunch they made a big deal of it.
    5) I agree that AT BEST, Zhang won just 4 rounds, but more likely 2 or 3.

    Usyk won't be stripped before the Fury fight. No way. Undisputed takes precedence over mandatory anyway

    2018 Hearn lost the purse bid so Whyte dipped it,H Fury stepped in and lost undisputed picking up a bad eye cut in the loss .

    Hopefully Joshua or the winner of Ruiz-Wilder.

    Joyce would be nice.

    Really, the division now is Usyk, Fury, Joyce, Wilder, Joshua and Ruiz, with Hrgovic being the seventh name, so it will be nice if he fought one of them.

    ^^^ The truth. Hrgovic is good enough to attract haters. He's an eastern European guy, so expect the usual suspects.

    When Joyce or Dubois box poorly, it is not mentioned because they are British and they always deserve a chance, while Hrgovic is criticized after one bad performance, there is no justice in boxing and fighters from bigger countries will always have advantages, even if they are bad...

    Not mentioned? Dubois has been a laughing stock lately over multiple threads.

    I never once said he didn’t beat zhang read my post again, I’m saying his resume is poor and zhang is only decent fighter he fought.

    You score fights by punch stats?

    So it’s just a ‘who touched the the other guy with his gloves more’ exercise? That’s amateur, not pro.

    No, I score bouts the same way you do. One some rounds when one guy greatly out lands and out throws the other guy, rounds without knock downs, I like to expose bad or biased judging through punch stats. This shines the truth on some people and they typically don't reply. So now you know a reason why I like them. In this case Zhang didn't win more than 4 rounds, More like 3 of them and as another poster pointed out there was a doggy type of knockdown from an illegal punch / throw down and biased ref.
