Harvey is making his pro debut. He's about as accomplished as an amateur can get, 10 National Championships, 2021 World Games Gold, Olympics. His opponent 6-1 as a pro looked decent on tape, he's a lot bigger but he hasn't beaten anyone.

 

[Krixes]

Harvey is now on the main card so I'm just gonna add some more fights in this thread. Some of the early fights I couldn't find odds on. I literally look everywhere...

 

[Krixes]

Go-to 24 minutes if you wanna see the size difference between Harvey and his opponent. It's at least 6-7 inches

 

[Krixes]

I'll open this back up later as well..

I totally forgot to bet on that one. Suarez is a nice prospect.

very early stoppage to make it easy for the "prospect"

R1

How does Harvey have a 5" reach advantage. That is insane. He's 5'5" at best but has a 74" reach. That blows my mind..

The fairytale of the tape.
Don't know if all that adds up.

But Harvey had better get it done after being talked up as if he was the most accomplished amateur boxer in the history of the galaxy.

Right..I won't lie, his opponent showed a nice jab on tape...

 

[Krixes]

OK..Dude just quit..

Harvey clearly won R1, landed 21 to 5,
but didn't see any reason for the palooka to quit other than being "bored" according to the commentary

That was strange as it gets.. Who says "I'm bored, I quit" after one round...

Harvey looked good for the 3 minutes we got to see him.

Which gave us such little info. He needs to fight again soon.
The commentary had boasted how it was better competition than most pro debuts. Then we found out the palooka has Roberto Soldic level heart
