    Still TBA. He's also scheduled to fight September 8th in his hometown which is supposed to be a pretty big deal. I'm guessing the June 9th date is gonna be a stay-busy fight.

    Hrgovic will fail at very top I think. It's evident that he is too easy to hit. And power might be his downfall as well just look what Modugno did to Turner in amateur ranks and he is not even that good and powerfull of a pro himself.

    More his performance against Turner who hasn't impressed as a pro. He won by rather wide score but than again was hit by shots that others with better head movement would slip and he couldn't stop Turner who he hit with everything he got.

    even the current top dogs are found lacking in quite a few areas.

    Yes, I agree. But my call is that he would loose to Joshua and Wilder.

    Prospects. And then where do you think they'll fit in with the current top professionals?

    Well, it's not a easy call as he is good fighter. Dubois might end up better. I exclude Joyce because of his defense. Romanov springs to mind because of his deadly power, hand speed and overall athletic ability. And maybe Yoka but he is just an outside possibility. Efetebor Apochi looks like a devastating puncher but he is at cruiser but he might move up, so he could end up better. And Tyrone Sponge might end up being better.

    But Hrgovic will have tough time with Usyk, Wilder, Ortiz, Andy Ruiz Jr and Kownacky if he is in reasonable shape.
