    Hrgovic should remain active despite the unfavorable situation for him, there are other good opponents with whom fights would be good...

    What is the point if he cant land the title shot
    • he can try to get big name like AJ or Anderson, get payday and retire, but with rematch clause like Joyce
    • he can maintain for 2 years his ranking (but if the likes of Wallin keep on coming, he will eventualy loose, and 1 loss is the end)
    • worst scenario would be fighting 1 per year, and that will happen unfortunatley

    I know he's aiming for the title, but he has to box, that's his job and he has to take risks...

    Nobody on the planet foresaw Fury-Wilder turning into a trilogy. So I wouldn't completely discount the possibility of Fury-Usyk going down a similar path. Particularly with all the belts and all the bragging rights on the line.

    It's absolutely disgusting that Beyonce Wilder is ranked second/third. That's where Zhang should be.

    Wilder being at #3 didn't even register.
    The Ring has always had roughly the correct names for the past decade, but without fail they are always in some crazy order.

    I've seen about 4 interviews in the last week with Hearn sayings its wrong whats happening to Hrgovic.

    From what I've seen of Hearn and the Sauerlands recently, they know its not right, they want Hrgovic to get the fight, but they know theres basically nothing they can do about it.

    "AJ or Anderson"

    Those are wildly varying levels of size of fight.

    Hrgovic did himself no favours by looking completely disinterested against the Aussie journeyman in his last fight.

    I would say he has a bit of Saudi money to keep him happy. I am all for the unification but the rematch piece is a bit frustrating, it holds up the division.

    Hopefully he has got a few quid to step aside, and can put on a good show vs Wallin then fight for belt after

    Joshua should be ahead of Wilder, Hrgovic should be ahead of Zhang and Joyce should still be ahead of Parker who I think is tenuously hanging on the list. Parker being at #5 is silly if Joyce is at 8.

    Anderson (who I was a fan of but I have serious, serious doubts about) shouldn't even be on the list, neither should Bakole.

    They're just making **** up at this point because....................no

    Stripping Usyk for what exactly?
    He already defended his title against a guess what ? Yeah, exactly a mandatory.
    Doesn't matter if it was against WBA or IBF. Mandatory is a good thing, if the rankings are good, which are not most of the time, but having 4 different organization and titles is a nightmare.
    As far as Usyk inactivity, how can you blame him, when he was trying to make the Undisputed fight? When it's fail the first thing he do was not trying to make as much money as possible, but fight his mandatory.
    And after he defeated Dubois obviously his team try again with the Undisputed. And they have said it clearly. If it can't happen, we are going for the mandatory.

    With all due respect to Hrgovic he can wait. Undisputed should always be priority and in that case the rematch as well.

    Also mandatory, which also means you are the number 1 guy outside of the Champion, should mean that Hrgovic should fight against other top opposition. He shouldn't have much of a problem with them, cause he is the number 1 guy, right?

    And his mandatory is deserved, but in my book he lost to Zhang, and when there is such a fights, that you can make a clear case for the other guys winning, there should be forced rematches by the governing bodies.

    Simple as that.
    Hrgovic should fight against top 10 fighters, maybe even twice, while waiting for his chance, and his chance is next. After Fury - Usyk settles their business, aka the 2 fights, then should the number 1 guy to face the Champ be Hrgovic and then if the champ refuse - strip him.
