Weirdo
They are at the commentary booth with no trousers or pants on as well.

That opponent was the type of guy you try get for an Allen, fisher, atang, if you want to get them a highlight and start getting them some momentum.

Hysa needs a soko or dobvechenko, the literal opposite of that… but he is also old man so I guess he needs a strait shot at somthing…

Kabayal needs a good win, not a 42 year old can crusher.

I’m often quite a kabayal hater and fair warning if he fights Hysa next my hating will be at full power.

This is an awful card, can only hope the main event coughs up.

You've gotta feel for Vaughan, he was well in the fight until the cut in the 5th, I had it even after 4 Ursu looked sharp early, he was stepping off and moving around the side and catching Vaughan clean with some nice uppercuts but Vaughan was aggressive and was catching Ursu with some hard looking shots, was shaping up nicely until the cut to Vaughan and it seemed to urge Ursu on he was landing some good punches to head and and body before it was stopped after 7

They didn't want to test him. They wanted him to win in emphatic style against someone that casuals think is a fearsome opponent. All so they know him as an opponent for the world heavyweight champion, Kabayel, that they also don't know.

Agreed, the cut definitely put him out of any rhythm.
Ursu is so lazy at times, admiring his own work, chin in the air.
He'll get his head taken off up the levels.

Who was Britain's true youngest champion? WBO was a secondary title when Naz won it.

A good ol Fish eyes bit of match making...older, inactive but has some cred in world terms.

He'll feed Dubois and Kabayel unbeaten European cans until they're both nearly 40 before they face each other to unify

Exactly. He’ll put Hrgovic in a rear naked choke as soon as Itauma lands a couple of shots, and probably as the Croatian throws a shot back

He might pull a Ron Kearney and pull Hrgovic's arm down to give Itauma a free shot

To be fair, Foster has some excellent wrestling. WCW may be giving him a call
