    Enjoyed this fight live as was difficult to tell who was going to win the whole way through. I didn't score, but Zhang looked very heavy-handed, Hrgovic looked to be seeing the black lights a couple of times and the body shots Zhang landed seemed to hurt him as well.

    Hrgovic has time to improve from this but a needs to work on a lot. Zhang not getting any younger so stamina probably not getting any better. Clearly he's flawed but I wouldn't mind seeing him again, vs somebody like Dubois, Ajagba, Whyte.

      Close fight, the right man won. Zhang dominated the earlier half of the fight, but faded starting in the 7th. Hrgovic stayed composed, took his opponent's best shots and kept enough in the tank to go 12. This fight was Zhang's to lose.

        Ok so let me get this straight Zhang dominated the first half of fight including a knockdown 10-8 round and then faded starting in rd 7? Even if he lost 7-12 (which he didn't he won at least 2 rounds) he still would've won on the cards due to the 10-8 round the fix was in before the fight started.

          Before the fight, a few brainwashed with Western propaganda was saying the CPC already had the fix in for a Zhang win lol

            I can see the 114-113 card, not the 115-112 cards though. I can see 114-113 Zhang too, it was a close fight.

            Zhang caught Hrgovic with some big shots, shots he didn't react well to at times. He tired a lot towards the end though.

            It was pretty messy but I quite enjoyed it.

              Zhang didn't win all of the early rounds, though. 115-112 is too wide, but I can see 114-113.

                Yeah he did 1-6 was all Zhang every time Hrgovic punched Zhang returned fire and landed the more damaging blows.

                How do you get 114-113 for Hrgovic? People keep saying this but can't explain how they got that score.
