    Equally grief can properly mess you up, especially if you've got a close relationship.

    Hrgovic is overrated and would lose badly to Fury,Joshua,Usyk and Wilder

    Some nice jabs to the body by McKean. Hrgovic showing no urgency at all. He did land a big right hand though. Better round from McKean but Hrgovic won it for me.

    Me too. I'm quite surprised he's lasted as long as he has.

    Round 5

    McKean having a really good first minute here, launching lead left hands down the pipe and scoring from afar. Hrgović hunting for body shots but not in range. Hrgović then relents and starts to time McKean with the orthodox 1-2 and zaps him a few times with it very crisp & clean. Steals the round back in the last minute.

    10-9 Hrgović, close

    50-45 Hrgović

    Hrgovic is not beating Usyk, too slow and basic, Usyk will dance rings around him.

    He looked good in deeper waters against Johnnie Rice (who later gassed against McKean and got stopped). OTOH, Rice did hurt McKean badly in the 6th of their fight.

    Best chance is to take Hrgovic deep.

    McKean came to life a bit more that round. Could almost give it to him.

    He is a Queenslander I suppose.

    Taken a few here though.

    I’ve seen him hurt several times in the past but his conditioning is pretty good for a big unit.

    McKean took that big right well.

    There's just seems to be a lack of conviction with Mckean. This isn't the best version of Hrgo.

    Hrg needs to keep his hands up walking out of clinches, don't get lazy, some better HW's will make you pay if you don't protect yourself at all times.
