This topic demonstrates why Tom Little is an excellent journeyman.

Hrgovic would destroy Babic quickly. Babic is a complete circus act. If Kennedy or Little had the resolve to last into the 5th round Babic would have fallen over. One thing I'll say in his favour is that he fights to his strengths. He'll be outboxed chopped up at range so he just tries to make it a 50:50 slugfest.

Yeah, Hrgovic looks way more convincing than Babic for now. Babic has just been brawling, Hrgovic showed some skills.

5 KO losses on the trot, he is just taking the paydays, good luck to him, but now he either needs to drop down a few levels or hang em up

He didn't have much options left. He was tired and rocked, he would get battered more, if he continued.

It was to be expected from Little. He's always been a comedy act as a boxer and always will be.

He'll pop up again in a few months as an opponent and give it large pre fight.

It's purely about money for them. giving it large is how they get paid. Integrity? Desire? they lost those a long time ago.

Little performed exactly how I expected him to, sadly.

Coming into the fight there was really nothing to suggest otherwise, even with the celebration and acclaim of weight loss.

Sincerely no disrespect to any fighter, but with Little having previous loses to Dorian Darch and Tom Little, it was well established that his level was and is lowly-domestic.

The sad thing is that there is something there with Little. You can see he has some raw talent.

Mark Bennett could be Babic's next opponent in January. Bennett is now in camp and training for a fight in the new year, so he could very well meet Babic or Wardley for the English.

Bennett will have been out of the ring for over 12 months due to the situation in the sport so that's a issue he could face fighting with a long break.

Either way it will be a tough night for him but Babic isn't tested yet and if Mark gets a decent camp behind him and can use his weight and height advantage and doesn't let Babic unload as Little did it could be an interesting fight if indeed it comes off.

Just caught up with the Babic v Little fight and although the result was predictable, Tom did try to be competitive.

I've seen heavyweight fights with less action over ten rounds where boxers have just sleep walked their way through to the final bell.

At least punches were being swapped and Babic did land a fair few meaty shots before Little capitulated and his corner chucked in the towel.

Little definitely needs to drop a few levels. He's taken 5 fights on the trot where he didn't have a prayer of winning and could do with a couple of bouts he stands a chance in.

Nobody knows or cares about Mark Bennett. I just looked at his record and hes just taken a lost to Nick Webb of all people. It would be a shocking bit of matchmaking if he fought Babic.

Fury couldn't even manage that despite nailing himself with that peach of an uppercut.

On the other hand, he won Sokolowski, who iced Webb. Anyway, he still looks like another punchbag for Babic.

Majidov fights this weekend.

I’d love him to come out and say that he’ll fight Babic on January 30th or whenever the Whyte v Povetkin fight happens.

A win would be of benefit to Majidov to be fair, considering his age and need to get on with it.

its a pay day for a genuine kid. Webb was the 3rd opponent on the same night. Give the kid a chance fully fit and lets see what happens. Not going to deny its a tough fight and we know who will be bookies favorite but some lads deserve a decent pay day, plenty of journeymen who are fighting at a moments notice to do exact the same thing. Bennett will give his all win lose or draw.

Babic against Mark Bennett would he a good slugfest. Bennett could really do with at least one 6 rounder, preferably two, before stepping in with Babib.

Bennett had had the harder route to the final than Webb in that Ultimate boxer tournament.

I had that first chunky lad beating Bennett actually, although it was close so fair enough

there's not much reason to think babic-bennett would go much different from babic's previous fights, the cabbage is clearly good enough to wreck guys around area level. but if they want a big tough looking guy who isnt much risk and will get babs another ko, then it makes sense

bennett vs adeleye is one id like more, adeleye less experienced than babic, only fought crap opposition, and reminds me of the guys who didnt start boxing till late, but a huge dude. would be perfect for bbc cuck porn

babic vs price
