Wow!

Surprising scorecard.

Once slight wide card?

Hope Joe calls it a day now. He's taken too much punishment.

Right man won for me, but as Mags said, Hrg could only blame himself if he'd blown it.

Joe's style can fool judges (and Frampton) - his volume and the way bombs seem not to have any affect.

Hrgovic probably sign a contract with Frank on the back of this.

96-94 Hrgovic, could be wider maybe, he landed they big rights from the first bell and he got the better of the exchanges , he just has lulls as he always does when it goes a few rounds and he spends time backed on the ropes or in the corner, Joyce was vintage, slow, easy to hit and great chin and a good output, didn't land much eye-catching but took advantage of Hrgovic's quiet spells, Hrgovic got a second wind and finished strong, not a lot of quality but an entertaining fight

How did Zhang manage to hurt Joyce so "easily"?

Hrgovic has a pair of pillows ok.
Zhang hits hard, that's ok.

But still it seems odd.

I think this is the main takeaway from this. For a boring guy who fights in slow motion he has been in a lot of entertaining fights (win or lose). Definitely time to go while he still has braincells left because if I had to predict serious CTE on an active boxer, he's the guy I think most would choose.

97-94
96-95
98-92

Unanimous decision for Hrgovic!
I think Hrg was always likely to win on the cards. I reckon FW will be quietly pleased.

Decent win for Hrgovic, I’m not convinced he wants another beating from Dubois though.

Joyce is a such a nice guy. It’s a shame he gets the stick he does from some of the plebs of this world.

I just think Zhang is freakily dominant in terms of fast twitch fibres. Bangs like a hammer but no stamina. Sprinter.

Hrgovic won that second half of the fight, won him the fight.
