    Yeah, putting him against Hitchins was moronic. Bad match up. Haney I get, he sold his belt and got life changing money.

    Mishiro is one of the worst fighters I've seen in a world title eliminator for years. He looked like he had rigor mortis, walking at Cruz in straight lines with no head movement. It was painful to watch. I think Cruz's lack of power at elite level could get him into trouble at some point, especially if he tries to move up.

    Hitchins isn't as good as i thought, it's the same with the Paro fight, too basic. He can't fight on the inside, he'll get stopped soon

    All Hitchins has to do is move up 4 divisions, which shouldn't be too hard for him, since he looks like he's a natural Middleweight anyway.:lol:

    Kambosos should retire in my opinion, in the last 6 matches he lost 4 times, the last two by stoppage. Against the big names in the category he would only take punishments, he had a very good career, it's time for him to hang up his gloves.

    I think he looked small at 135.

    George turned 1 perfect night into half a dozen big paydays. I think he's exceeded expectations in his carrer.

    Yeah he did very well. I still think there are a few more fights and potential pay days for him in Australia like I mentioned before a fight with Liam Wilson would be good and possibly an eventual fight with Harry Garside.

    Hitchins is becoming a really good fighter. 2 really good wins in a row

    Have to respect it. He’s earned over £20m off the back of that fight. Great work.

    Also Hitchins calling himself a free agent in the post-fight interview after Eddie spent millions on him is unreal disrespect.

    He wasn't disrespectful he was just explaining the situation. Hitchins has said numerous times including after his win that Matchroom and Hearn have done a great job with him in these 6 fights since he left Mayweather Promotions. Let's see if Hearn wants to pay up for Hitchins vs Teofimo Lopez. That would sell-out the MSG Theatre.
