    Not only will Filip Hrgovic fight Moses Itauma, but Luka Plantic will also fight Lester Martinez, an incredible day for Croatian boxing...

    Congratulations to Croatia. I also like the fact the people Croatians send to fight for them are Croatian. That's really weird for Northern Europe to see, sort of avant-garde, and they don't really understand the concept and might even be uncomfortable with it.
    It's true that Flip let us down a bit against Dubious.
    But he has a chance to redeem himself.

    how is Hrgovic-Ituama a boring fight? It’s literally the final exam for the kid who may be THE guy at heavyweight for the next decade. And that exam ain’t gonna be easy, even if he passes it.

    lol what a weird comment. England-born AJ isn’t actually English because he’s got Nigerian blood, that kind of thing right?

    regardless the answer for all this is simple — it’s the best who get sent to fight for their country in a boxing ring. A boxing ring is the equalizer, it doesn’t give a **** about what your heritage is, what blood you have, where your parents were from.

    You somehow eliminate the descendants of immigrants, you make your country’s boxing materially worse. Good lord, do that to the USA and you get rid of a lot of our best fighters and coaches.

    Heavyweight division enters a slump like Klitscko era once a new top dog like Ituama comes into force...if he beats Hurgo that is.

    The slivovitz will be flowing most freely in Croatia, win lose or draw.
