When are bringing out the Adam Smith Drinking Game?
Someone make some bingo cards for the next time he is on.

I got the quotes:

“there’s the respect”
“This is what boxing’s all about!”
“We’ve got a fight on our hands!”
“He’s digging deep now”
“Toe-to-toe!”
“It’s all on the line tonight”
“A chess match early on”
“The atmosphere is electric!”
“Styles make fights”
“This could go either way”
“He’s hurt him there!”
“All the talk is over”
“It’s heating up now”
⭐ **FREE SPACE** ⭐
“They’re trading leather!”
“What a response!”
“Can he recover?”
“He’s on unsteady legs”
“This is turning into a war”
“The drama continues!”
“He’s biting down on the gumshield”
“Pure theatre!”
“He’s got to let his hands go”
“A test of heart and will”
“He’s come to fight tonight”
“Edge-of-your-seat stuff!”
“Barrera and Morales!”

Or take a shot when he says any of them :lol:
I can't drink them fast enough to keep up.

Hrg can do 12000 rounds like this. And there is nothing coming back…

Allen did dick shot him to try get him off, that’s smart. Leaning the head in a bit too

Jesus even with expectations as they were, that was a tad anticlimactic.

Penny for Itauma’s thoughts. He must fancy his speed can get the better of a comparative robot like Hrg.

It's exactly what I thought it would be when it was first announced. Dave should never have been allowed in the ring with Hrgovic.

And that’s why you do not go to a stadium in the rain for this… it was a terrible matchup. Arguably Dave Allen’s single worst match up there is (Mabey Usyk is worse…).

Glad the corner did that. I’m sure Dave could of stayed upright a few more rounds, but what’s the point Dave has nothing that can worry hrg…

At least if it was someone not made of stone…

He should take a winnable fight and retire.. or retire already
