    I voted Hutchenson. As an underdog he came out and totally controlled that fight from start to finish, boxing extremely well. He was very impressive indeed, beating Richards easier than Bivol did.

    Where was that rabbit punching tonight? There was either none or close to none. Dubois was actually hitting on the break, low, headbutt, everything that can do, he's done it.

    And i like him, but this ain't Boxing. This needs to be penalized. Boxing lost tonight, at least in my eyes.

    I went with Nick Ball. It's been noted that this is a good question because you can make a case for all of the winners. It's also good because you can make a case against all of the winners. I am going with Ball because he overcame physical disadvantages with grit and determination and earned himself his first world title.

    There was a lot of rabbit punching in the clinch. Hrgovic does it in every fight, the ref warned him for it multiple times. Of course Dubois isn't the cleanest fighter but we can't just ignore the stuff Hrgovic is doing.

    Dubois did imo. He was getting tagged by the right hand of Hrgovich early and often and looked rocked at times but he made the adjustments needed, upped his pace and came on strong against a fighter who was the favorite to beat him and by KO. Ball was very good as well.

    A lot of people saying Double D's, if I was impressed by anything about his performance it was how well he took every single power shot Hrgovic threw, and he took them all. Like damn is this guy a deer in headlights for a slow telegraphed right hand.

    didnt watch the fights tonight but I thought Hrgovic was going to stop Dubois so I would have to think Dubois

    How did Ford do in defeat?

    Ford fought reasonably well and rocked Ball late. I had Ball 115-113. He was just the busier guy for the most part, and he put his punches together well in spots.

    Yup on both accounts.

    Ford showed plenty of heart and sportsmanship. He may have simply outgrown the weight. I'll certainly follow him at 130lbs.

    Nick Ball for me.

    Impressive all the way through as came away with a resounding win as the underdog.

    **** Hrgovic. BUM!

    Hrogovic has proven what a bum he is.

    Ford made it a good fight and showed his quality at times but was overwhelmed in there and couldn’t keep the scouse wrecking pitbull off him. 116-112 Ball for me.

    It was very close, I had it 115-113 Ford. But with no real clear rounds throughout the fight, can't really complain about it going the other way.

    Dubois is improving and he vs AJ would be entertaining until AJ catches him.
