McKenna is proving durable but Crocker's power is overrated. Loading up way too much but winning comfortably.

Incredible toughness and heart, but for what..?

he's not really a ko artist anyway. usually boxes and moves and counterpunches, with heavy hands that will hurt guys on the counter, but not blast em out power . in this case though mckenna was so stationary he just decide to dig in

Decent domestic level but not much more than that, tbh.

Commentators are trying to make Crocker sound like the second coming of Nigel Benn....

crock is euro level minimum. domestic level is like louis greene, who crock easily outclassed and stopped. crocker is very athletic and can win at higher levels than this

Fair enough and I understand about being marketable but trying hard for the KO, inevitably to KO never comes.

i mean mckenna was just standing there taking a beating. croc was easily winning every round. wasnt really a fight that called for much adjustment. mckenna is a tough guy tbf

i think a fighter that offers more offensively will give croc a chance to shine using more movement and counterpunching

imagine the fact it was a local derby affected crocker there and the way he boxed. he'll be smarter when there isnt so much emotion involved. impressive punching but needs a bit more polish

ya i agree. loads of athletic ability. explosive fast hands, good reflexes, moves well. some power, albeit not a huge puncher. he's got a lot of tools now it's about putting them together most effectively. i think mckenna was just so stationary and easy to hit that he just decided to dig into him, and nothing happened to require him to change it up. but his best is when he's boxing and moving and landing hard counters
