Good win but not a great performance by Hrgovic. I scored it 115-112 Hrgovic as well. I think Hrgovic will come back stronger. He's definitely better than he looked tonight.

Close fight but Zhang 100% deserved the decision. This is why boxing is terrible sometimes. Reward the man who won the fight. Period. Crowds reaction says it all. Wrong decision to a great fight. Respects to Filip but Zhang was clearly the better man for me tonight.Comment

Yeah I don’t think Hrgovic is that good but he took some heavy, heavy shots and stayed lucid and composed. AJ doesn’t eat those shots staying upright, then again he properly doesn’t eat those shots full stop.A close fight can not be a robbery, zhang was winning then proceeded throw barely anything/nothing in the last rounds. Hrgovic showed heart, i actually think a few of the shots he took would have knocked out 90% of the division and consistently threw some sweet combosComment

I never put a lot of stock in the narrative that Filip was being avoided. After squeaking controversially to a decision that most though would be a walk in the park for him , that narrative should be put to rest. Still a fun fight and respect to both men.Comment

Close fight in my book with a few swing rounds, but there were more Zhang wins on my scatterplot of acceptable scorecards than Hrgovic wins. Hope there's a rematch, but there won't be.Comment
