On the one hand that's the best I've seen Hrg box, but we can't read too much into that when it was all going his way.
Allen needs guys coming up or down the hill if he continues. Beatings like this are irresponsible on the management side.
To me it just looked like the usual slow(ish) predictable Hrgovic.
He’s a big unit and a tough prospect for Itauma, but I reckon Moses is sat somewhere right now thinking I’m breaking this guy down for sure.

I don't even think Dave could beat TKV. Riakporhe would eat Allen alive.

Almost as one sided as Usyk-Fury 2.

I wouldn't risk moses with Hrgovic
Based on what you've just seen?
Big gap from the puddings hes beaten so far to world number 4. Needs a few more fights I think
I can see that, but isn't he the future?
Hrg does tire and output drop as the fight goes on and he's not particularly quick, big ponderous thudding shots.
I think it's a good fight and winnable for Ituama.

Fury only outlanded him in one round. That, is a one sided fight.

Itauma's the heavy favourite, but Hrg usually fights with a wide, leaky guard like Pulev, both relying on toughness to soak up what comes through, and here against Allen I thought he was defensively tighter for a change. Allen's Fisher plan of digging to the body to clear the path upstairs got him nowhere.
And despite historically poor stamina Hrg's durable, questions yet to be answered by Itauma. Hrg's maybe the safest way of getting him there.

Is it as one sided as getting battered from the first minute, knocked down four times and then sparked out?

Itauma is not ready for Hrgovic.

Probably because the first fight wasn’t one sided.

Comparing tonight's tosh with Dubois v Joshua is just plain silly !
Hrgovic operates on a completely different frequency to Allen.
It speaks volumes for the health of boxing attendances in Britain that more than a couple of thousand punters would pay money to watch such a contest.

It's a bit like you always bringing up AJ.

To be fair Mickey1975, you just took an unnecessary cheap shot at AJ
