    I’ve seen McKean fight live before. He moves well and fights in spurts. He was pretty good fundamentally but not sure he can keep Hrgovic off him especially when he taste his power.

      I sort of agree but hrgovic is still two levels above you, who have you beaten? His best win is most likely against some bouncer who used to be a rugby player in some Sydney club who turned boxer.

          McKean is not trying to portray himself as some accomplished fighter...he is just saying neither is Hrgovic.

            err...who the **** has Dempsey McKean beat? I'd never even heard of him before this week. I do agree with his sentiment that Hrgovic is ludicrously overrated though. He was very poor against Zhang, someone who, if the hype were real he should have blasted out in short order.
            Go fish again. Zhang is a top 10 ten ranked fighter and showed it by pulverizing Joe Joyce

            Hrgovic won the fight with Zhang, and suffered a dodgy knockdown we he was hit in back of the head and thrown down. Yet when he hit Zhang with a punch and made him do a spilt that wasn't a knockdown? BS ref.

            Hrgovic was not focused due to the recent death of his father. The two men were very close. He admits to it being his worst performance because of that. He is not over rated. Only the haters would say that.

            He will beat McKean and fights Usyk next, the #1 heavyweight in the world. Hrgovic fights his forth undefeated fighter in a row in McKean, has taken five 0's as in undefeated fighters records. It will be six.

              In all he other fights expect for the top ten ranked Zhang when he had a crooked ref for Zhang ( the knockdown and the one that wasn't ) and had personal issues affecting him, Hrgovic was dominant in winning. Fans do not realize his first pro 15 fighters features better competition than Tyson, Lewis , or Fury. It's true. I am saying it to remind the haters and fans.

                I tied to send you a message, but you mail box is full.

                I just want to say, you know your boxing. Good point on McKean being dropped. That is not well known. Are you Aussie?

                  Hrgovic really should be splattering Mckean, apparently that Leutele fight was razor close. But Leutele is no bum, he had Huni down in a very close fight.

                    Hrgovic had a close fight with Zhang, McKean had a close fight with Rice, who is journeyman level.

                    I haven`t seen much of McKean, but Hrgovic should be able to beat him clearly.

                    But, than again, Zhang almost lost to Forrest, but beat Joyce, so who knows.

                      Hrgovic really needs to step up his competition for such a highly touted contender. He's sitting on his IBF mandatory, but who knows when that will come, with Fury-Usyk still a high possibility.
