Im keen to see hrgs weight.

230lb hrg takes zhang to school and wins by late stoppage...

250lb hrg trades up and probably wins early. but mayyyyy get chinned himself.

hrgovic 242ish. Zhang 277ish. Big boys, Can not see zhang having stamina to go deep, but he can whackk early.

Zhang inside 3 rounds is 35/1 or inside 6 is 16/1. Despite thinking Hrgovic is going to win, I can't help but think those odds are excellent value.

Zhang can punch. Be wise for Hirgovic to respect that but if it goes over 4 mins Hrgovic should win.

There can’t be too many 20 plus stone Chinese southpaws out there at over 6”5. :yay:

Iv got a little bit on zhang inside 6 rounds at 17 or 18 to 1. put it on a couple of days ago. feels like value.

If you fancy Zhang really early (inside 4) you can get some pretty big odds!

Realistically Zhang will never win in the second half of the fight or on points, but is a value bet early

It's going the distance. Both guys will be gassed by the 6th round.

Zhang seems like a bit of a let’s pretend pro. He’ll probably lose in 3 rounds and retire.

Zhang has high level skills. This shouldn't be much of a contest.

I like Filip, he was quite a surprise to hear interviewed, fluent English and very funny. He should beat the slow boat Chinaman, but I remember watching him last time out thinking he was a bit careless with the punches coming back his way ..hopefully they’re telling him to be careful in the early rounds here.

I had money on Jordan Thompson to lose by KO last week and Zhang to win early this week. 2 losses but I refuse to think they were sh1t bets given how things panned out.

I agree about Zhang, despite losing, Zhang to win early at 16/1-36/1 is an excellent bet and I think it has proved itself so.

Thought Zhang edged this, but neither impresses.

Yeh you take a fight you’re given.

It’s a final eliminator.

You gotta take the small pay at times to earn your right.

And who’s to say Hrg and Zhang got paid millions.

They both looked very vulnerable in the fight so he should've seen it as a missed opportunity.
