Props to Hall for admitting defeat, but I don't like to see boxers give up so easy. He's really not that bad, just fought weak competition for too long.

Yep all about the body shots, gotta set it up first! You could hear them landing in round 1 was making me hurt.
Hall has a lot of heart, but Konecny is on a higher level.

PREDICTIONS? BETS?
There’s no denying that Nathan Cleverly is stepping up the calibre of his opposition with this fight. He comes up against the Iraq-born, Armenian-raised-German Karo Murat in this WBO light-heavyweight eliminator match with the excellent Jurgen Brahmer waiting for the winner at the end.
The Welshman clearly isn’t in the mood to hang around as he eyes international glory, but in all-round nice guy Murat he faces a fighter who could derail his dreams.
The German fights with a record of 22-0-0, he is a slick fighter, quick hands, strong chin and while Cleverly is an all-rounder with good footwork and decent hand speed he has never faced a fighter of Murat’s ability before and could end up ruing taking such a tricky fight.
Of all the bouts this could be the closest and the excitement level will be high because someone is going to lose their unbeaten record. To stand a chance, Cleverly needs to out-box his opponent and he can certainly achieve that as he doesn’t yet have the power to be a one-punch boxer so he tends to build his fights. This is a real pick’em fight which could go either way; Murat has the experience but Cleverly is a natural athlete and a genuine talent.
If the maths graduate gets his sums right he could take this on points.
