The Granite Man (Croatia) transformed the much heralded ‘future king’ of the heavyweight division in to a rag doll !
Itauma (Slovakia), with only 14 pro bouts under his belt was pulverised to mush in that 9th round.
The kid hasn’t had enough fights. Fighting only twice a year at age 20 & 21… it showed last night.
Mike Tyson didn’t win the Championship until his 28th fight!
In 1919, the legendary Harry Greb had 45 fights in that one year… winning them all !
These modern day ‘boxers’ (just like footballers) are over hyped & over paid!
I tipped Hrgović to win… and made a few shekels on it!
Non football, maybe there should be a stone age forum for these cavemen contests 🤔
