    Hrgovic is a myth, he looks **** every single time he fights.

    Round 10

    Hrgović and McKean are both exhausted. Commentators put it well, "if they were shattered after five, they are twice as shattered now twice as deep in". They're both daubing each other with light shots as they collide together in clinching waltzes, over and over. Hrgović's shots aren't particularly clean or pretty but they bother McKean more than vice-versa.

    10-9 Hrgović, close

    97-93 Hrgović

    Shocking quality, is this the same sport that Inoue and Crawford compete in?

    Round 11

    Clinching. Grappling. Rabbit punching. Stalling. Lots and lots and lots of all of that, from both. Hrgović is landing better with the short right hand on the chin, and never doing any more than grazing with the big sloppy blind left hook up top which sometimes follows it. McKean's best stuff of the round came in the form of illegal shots.

    10-9 Hrgović

    107-102 Hrgović

    Hopefully DAZN will go back to the random shot of someone shoes for the rest of this fight.

    Didn't see that ending happening. McKean out on his feet folded on the ropes, hate to see those last shots to the back of the head.

    Mckean reminds me of Big Dave Price without his power but more stamina.

    Prime Chisora would take both of these two with a plodding masterclass

    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!
