    The year is nearly halfway through and i can't think of single decent HW fight so far.

    I'm not including Fury v Whyte as Whyte was simply awful. Didn't come close to being competitive.

    Best i can think of is Bakole v Yoka. It was at least interesting since Bakole was better than expected and Yoka was way worse.

    Maybe i've missed some decent fights ? Don't think so. Basically HW is dire right now.

    Bakole Yoka was a goodun. Zhang Hrgovic we were deprived of.

    Martin - Ortiz on New year's Day was a lot better than I expected it to be.
    Ortiz was dropped multiple times, and Martin was stopped.

    Just watched this based on your recommendation, this was indeed a decent fight. And the stoppage was a good one aswell, also what a weird moment with Martin getting his arm caught in the ropes, when he got knocked down. And the referee had to help him free it.
