        Vianello obviously made some improvements in his game. His Ajagba fight was very close also..

        Maybe we should get Ajagba rematch next.
        Maybe we should not wirte off anyone with one loss at heavyweight. Or two.

          I couldn't believe that fight was allowed to continue past the 4th round.
          Multiple concurrent failures:

          * Ring doctor didn't cover Makhmudov's undamaged eye for the finger test at least 3 times - BOGUS
          * Makhmudov's corner kept sending him out there even when a broken orbital bone looked likely
          * Ref declined to call the most obvious knockdown
          * Ref's stoppage in final round was way late as Makhmudov couldn't defend himself for at least thirty seconds

          I used to think Montreal was a good fight town with decent officials, fans, and fighter teams - even the fans should have been yelling to stop the fight, for the sake of their fighter's health and the integrity of the sport.
          I thought it was a disgraceful showing.​

            I think the lesson is not to make hot takes off of a single result and to evaluate things in their totality and what your eyes tell you.

            ​​​​​Vianello was winning against Rice when he was cut and the ref ruled it a TKO. Other than that cut Rice did nothing. But that's not why people didn't rate Vianello, it's because he hasn't looked good in most of his prior fights.

            He was gifted a draw against Kingsley Ibeh in a fight he definitely lost. He looked better in the Ajagba fight but the Nigerian was pretty listless himself and hasn't looked good in a while. Last night Vianello was getting away with things in the ring because his opponent was glacially slow.

            Makhmudov stopped looking impressive once his opposition level got to the point where people fought back. Takam was able to win rounds and make Makhmudov duressed even tho the Frenchman was very much shot at that point in his career. Kabayel blew him away and a limited Vianello landed at will.

            Regarding Hrgovic, for me, it's not the fact he lost to DuBois....it's the fact he doesn't move his head off the line and is incredibly stiff. You can get away with that stuff up until a certain level and then you can't.

              Unless there was something really wrong with Hrgovic that night against DuBois, he's topped out and only has a downward trajectory going forward. He looked terminally robotic even against DuBois who is not a fast-moving cutie.
              Hrgovic vs Makhmudov maybe for the Battle of The Bots?

                I am not convinced Dubois did pull of a Buster Doglas performance. I tend to think Hrgovic doesn't take his career seriously. If he does he gets back on the horse soon.

                  Makhmudov managed to make a mediocre heavyweight like Vianello look the goods. Kabayel has taken the soul out of the Russian, who's got nothing left.

                  I think the Italian will lose again as soon as the level of the competition increases just a bit.

I was so happy this bum of a heavyweight was beaten again, but Canada still haven’t fixed their corrupt boxing system.
                    I’m Canadian & all I can say is Bute/Andrade 1….
