    Even a last minute Chisora would be better. He'll fight anyone.

    I suspect, he didn't want to take any risks and lose his mandatory spot.
    I can understand it. We saw what happened with Whyte :eusa_doh:

    He publicly called out Parker after that, He has been calling Joshua for a while, and he agreed for Dubois fight despite not getting him a belt.

    Pretty much 95 percent of the people you see here on these boxing forums are casual or pretend boxing fans.

    Joshua is a bum, Joshua is a steroid using body builder. Joshua is going to get knocked out by Ngannou. Joshua destroyed Ngannou. Now those same people act like Joshua is a star again.

    Joe Joyce is going to destroy Zhang. Joe Joyce has the best chin in the history of boxing (Lol the dude was 37 years with only 15 bouts as a pro. How could they determine this) Zhang wins and now Zhang is this unstoppable monster.

    Usyk moves up the heavyweight and beats old no talent Chazz WItherspoon, old D level Derek Chisora. Some how that gets him a title fight. He beats a mentally broken Joshua after fatboy Andy Ruiz knocked him out first. Some how this makes Usyk one of the ATG heavyweights. Then Usyk beats Tyson Fury, a guy who is so bad that his best win in his career game against a 40 year old Wlad. A guy who turned pro in the 1990s and got destroyed by Corrie Sanders a guy who turned pro back in the 1980s and even look good against a old Wlad. Now Usyk is the greatest fighter who has ever lived.

    Casuals, clurelsss fans, pretend fans, and just biased people.

    You legit make sense:

    • Joshua made star by beating Naganou who is worthless
    • Joyce was The Man, The Contender, The Man who was going to Challange Fury, everybody was on his side before Zhang
    • Zhang was written off after Hrgovic defeat, Joyce wanted the leftovers, easy win - Now Zhang is heavyweight King, until Parker showed up
    • Usyk did beat AJ twice, but yes, that AJ was mentaly broken after Ruiz, and had a mental breakdown after Usyk-Joshua 2
    • Fury beat old man Klitchko, then cemented his career over the baddest man in the Game - Wilder, who never beat Top 10 opponent
    • Just as Fury, Joshua also got his belt by beating Klitcko who was even older

    February 2022: IBF mandate Hrgovic (top contender) v Hunter as a final eliminator
    December 2024: Usyk v Fury 2

    1,032 days

    Looks like we have another Dillian Whyte saga on our hands

    Hrgovic Should have banging the door down by fighting top fighters instead of sitting on his mandatory. It’s his own fault.

    Because he don't have a back, like Usyk has.

    Dubois can lose badly, win two easy fights with nobodies and he can fight for the tittle in less than a year, Hrgovic have to beat any/every top contender and still don't get his shot.

    I can't believe real boxing fans are ok with this.

    Now you’re saying Parker is a ducker?
    unlike Hrgovic who has fought no one, Parker has been fighting legit top ten fighters.

    A lot of boxing fans primarily care about their favourite boxers or even their favourite promotional outfits these days.
    They just get spoon fed the corporate narrative of who deserves what
