    Crobox hating on his countryman again.. big surprise here. This was a close fight, no way was this a robbery. I understand being honest and fair even if it’s your fighter but you’re coming off as a hater.

    Even if You score this KD as legit (me think after see this many times that Zhang hit with forearm and push Hrgovic down) still in round 4 Hrgovic was clearly better. Throw and land more than Zhilei.
    Same story in round 5 but here I understand that someone can give it for Zhang because in end of the round Filip eat heavy shots and they think he is heavy heart. But that was only better finish.
    Even Mannix give this round still for Filip for work done previous.

    Come on man, it's not true, Hrgovic suffered heavy punches and was shaken several times, so I had the impression that Zhang won more rounds...

    Soo for me Filip won rounds 2,4,7,8,10,11,12 (2,7,8,10,11,12 very clealry)
    Round 5 is pretty for him until last moment. You can score it whatever You want.
    Zhang won 1(was worse in that too but let say KD was legit), 3,6,9 (5*)

    Hrgovic land more and throw more. He not beat to the block. Just replay was freakin one sided. For example look what replay they show after most dominant round number 10... They show 2 good shots from Zhang when all round he took massive beating.
    After round 4 they also show better shots from Zhang showing miss combos from Hrgovic where he land few bomb.
    After 7 rounds I guess also massive for Filip they show this shots where both landed. Not even once they dont show Perfect right hand which Zhang eat all night.

    Filip got harder moments in fight, shots landing on him got better visual effects but commentary panic too much often when he after eating few shots answer few seconds later.

    Great fight. I can understand ppl think that Zhang do enough but talking about robbery and other...

    Looks like round 4 and 5 judgment is case here. 1 for sure must go to Filip imo and even both not be scandal.

    But reematch here is very good option. I think Filip told in past that he can even go to China for that. Zhang choose other fights probably.

    Imo also in reematch chance would be 60/40 for Filip. I guess he as Younger and better stamina fighter who is more active can win this much higher if he focus more but who knows.

    Remember on the night thinking that Zhang had just done enough but that Hrgovic was going to take the judges score cards. A draw was probably right as Zhang faded badly.

    Yes in the beginning. Then he gassed out completely and Hrgovic drowned him in the second half.

    Most punches "landed" on Zhang were blocked or partially blocked. Are we suddenly scoring blocked punches now? Meanwhile Zhang landed some very clean punches that clearly rocked hrgovic.

    Also hrgovic wasn't better than Zhang by any means, he just had better cardio and a good chin

    Who ever is scoring should take ref desicion on the account thought. If there is knockdown ruled of course it goes to cards. I had Zhang winning one point but wasnt supprised that they gave it to Hrgovic.
