    Honestly, I already feel bad for Hrgovic, who is unsuccessfully trying to get a good fight, I'm afraid that his career is coming to an end, Sanchez and Kabayel are the next possible opponents, but of course Hrgovic's promoters have to offer more money...

    He lost vs Zhang imo and doesnt deserve a title shot.
    Only guy that does is Joyce imo.

    Hrgovic and Sanchez need to fight asap. They need to be active like Joyce, instead of waiting for lucky title shot.

    English and American fans won't watch EE fighters in general. Look how many have their careers die from lack of opportunity.

    They like to watch Babic, the future cruiser-, bridger- and heavyweight champion of the world

    Some East Europeans become popular.

    Artur Beterbiev is hugely popular in Montreal, as was Lucien Bute twelve years ago. Kovalev was getting very good ratings a few years ago.

    Promoters need to give them a chance to shine - Hrgovic would have done very well with a promoter who believed in him.

    However, an East European boxer with a defensive, feather-fisted Floyd Mayweather style would never make it though.

    About my feelings. He lost to Zhang, and has ducked a fight with Bakole in the past. He had no performance that I am impressed with. Don't want to see Usyk waste his time with this guy, or Dubois.

    Fury, maybe Wilder or Joyce. Only decent fights for Usyk.

    I feel worse for Zhang.

    He beat Hrgovic but got jobbed because Hrgovic is supposed to be the big prospect.

    Zhang is 40 years old and should be sitting on a title shot and a nice big retirement payday, instead he's going to get pummelled by the juggernaut for peanuts.

    Hrgovic will come again.

    The only people Usyk should fight now are Fury and possibly Wilder. Nobody else does anything for him legacy wise and he's getting on and could get upset by a B-fighter eventually when age catches up.

    Wilder in no way deserves a title shot. Time for up and comers to get a shot.

    I would like to see Usyk fight some mid sized heavyweights.

    People are going to crown him the new Ali if he beats fury but stylistically he had worse problems with Chisora than he did AJ.

    Sanchez, Anderson, other guys of that ilk would be VERY interesting challenges for Usyk, who isn't that old, hasn't had that many fights and hasmt taken much punishment. Fury, win or lose shouldn't be his last fight.
