    Mansour&Molina were practically ghosts by the time Hrgovic got his claws on them.

    Also hrgovic was targeting the Molina's brain stem like it was a routine body punching. That's his favorite shot in his last fight

    Are you aware that Monsour was 45 years old ? Are you aware Molina is at the end of his career and was a bum in his prime?

    I haven't read a post that stupid since you you claimed Hrgovic is being moved faster than Mike Tyson.

    Martin Bakole could end up being the Ilunga Makabu of the HW division , possibly better. Hrgovic ducking him kinda tells you how dangerous he is.

    Molina was a real World Beater when Arreola made him a KTFO in 1 round Highlite Reel victim... But it did catch the eyes of Joshua and Wilder who gave Molina title shots for being so fragile!!

    I've got no problem with this fight,,but I think he needs to be far ,far more active to get his name mentioned among the contenders ,and do it on a highly televised basis.

    Ancient chris just went to war with the big bald polish baby and has fought better fighters in prime and post prime. That Chris that showed up against the polish baldy is better than molina or Washington.

    Let’s be real, hrgovic is 28 this year, completely frozen out and realistically will not be looking at a title shot for at least 3 years. Let’s be completely honest

    I'm disappointed. Hrgović is much more experienced than a boxers with 20 pro matches. Boxing for 13 years,has 30 amateur matches and 30 matches in World Series boxing. Also, the record score in the WSB, 26 wins, only four defeats, has never been on the floor. I think he's ready for the strongest in the division. He's going to knock out this one in the first three rounds, just like he did with anothers last year.

    Not really. Kownacki just sucks. Arreola was there to be taken out but Kownacki is terribly predicable. He's another manufactured fighter who has some attributes sure but is the product of favorable matchmaking more than anything else..


    You might well be right there but I hope you aren't. Way too many good heavy prospects being frozen out now. Here's to hoping that doesn't happen.

    cant see anyone getting a look in for the foreseeable apart from fury, aj, wilder and whyte. Will realistically take around 3 years, then they’ll most likely be gone.

    I have no idea how some people have gone and made Hrgovic a "top 10 contender" already.
    He's only had 10 fights and his best win is probably Eric ****ing Molina.

    I'm not saying he can't compete but he has only had 10 pro fights and looking at the ring ratings other 11 hws it's not a bad fight for his 11th fight
    I'm surprised someone would be disappointed for someones 11th fight especially when looking at who the others fought.
    Regardless of amateur experience it's not the same as the pros
    Not completely the same thing but an example of experience I think could be lomachenko lost his 2nd pro fight but I don't think he would lose that fight if it was to have happened now.
    Now this is not as big or risky a fight that Hrgovic is having but I was just trying to give an example about the learning and experience

    I think the Olympic boxing qualifiers that will be held in May in Paris are the main reason why Hrgovic's match was moved to the USA for April 17th. It is no secret that Hrgovic wants Olympic gold, with gold it will be much easier to reach the belt match in 2021. We could watch the finals of Filip Hrgovic vs Bakhodir Jalolov in Tokyo. Or the semi-finals.

    DUDE, who was Tyson fighting in his 11th pro fight? And how many fights did it take Tyson to get a title shot? Shut you down again. Hrgovic is fast tracked. Top prospects on the way up face trial horses, journeymen, fringe contender types, guys ranked in he top 50 and such.
