It was a mismatch from the beginning. The only reason there wasn't an outcry here was because it involved a british fighter.

Your wrong, it wasn't anymore of a mismatch than Abraham versus Gevor or Demers. Elcock is on a similar sort of ability level to those two and i don't begrudge him a shot out of the blue. I think Abraham's power and accuracy were just a bit too much at the end of the day but as i said before Elcock even posted himself, he was doing okay and winning a round or two.

Elcock went out there, worked to a plan and had some successes. Fair play to him I say.

At least at the end of his career, in his twilight years, when he looks back on his career he can say he fought for a real world title against a real champ and gave his all.

Elcock gave it a good go, but Abraham was always going to catch up with him sooner or later. Wayne is simply not durable enough against the likes of Abraham, who is a very strong, world class boxer.

Can't fault Wayne's peformance one bit.
