    Disappointing. Well, I hope Hrgovic finds a decent opponent soon. This period of inactivity isn't good for his career.

    Hunter is a ducker. He's now lost my respect.

    Ofc a bit like joke but maybe he might offer to Gassiev or Briedis to do fight at HW if they offer HW fight.
    Not sure that they will gave Hrgovic to them fight with so soon but might be interesting.

    Not sure.
    He might had beated up row with bums but instead of this fought vs prime Usyk at CW. High risk fight.
    Ok, did not had won but this showed that he does have balls.

    Seems a bit weird, it was an eliminator wasn't it?

    Maybe Hunter didn't want that smoke, Hrgovic could be the real deal.

    I don't know.
    Assumed that this is ranking fight. Maybe something more.

    Ok, Chisora might be very usable there if no one else will agree to fight with him.
    If $ enough, he will not talk long time until contract and fight will be scheduled, I think.

    It was a good fight . So was never going to happen. HW boxing is in a complete mess at the moment.

    Can't say he ducked if we have no clue why he didn't go forward with it.

    Could it have anything to do with the VADA test that he supposedly missed?

    Yep true. His track record doesn't suggest he's the type to duck an opponent having fought Uysk, Bakole, Ustinov on short notice, Kuzmin and Povetkin. Let's see who he has lined up instead if he's got a bigger name for more money that would explain the decision to go another direction.

    A final eliminator. Winner becomes mandatory for AJ. With no promotional backing that’s Hinters only **** at getting a title shot any time soon.

    unless he signs to Top Rank or PBC he will not be fighting fir the title for atleast two years if not more. Career suicide IMO.

    a major duck.
