Patrick Hyland enters this fight with a 31-2 record that includes 15 knockouts. Hyland has won six of his last eight fights and is coming off a April loss to Gary Russell Jr. Hyland is always a threat due to his experience and the sneaky power he has in both hands. Hyland has won four of his last six fights by knockout and that could be the recipe for an upset against a boxer with little to zero pop. Hyland has also never lost a fight outside of the United States. The concern with Hyland remains the same, as his resume isn’t that great, and his only two losses have come against the best boxers he’s faced. This will be Hyland’s fifth fight in the United Kingdom.
