    IMO this will be an incredible fight. With Dubois tied in vs Wardley, Parker still uncertain, this fight makes the most logical sense.

    Sadly i think Kabayel is only interested in mickey mouse fights despite probably being the most well rounded heavyweight around today. I would have Kabayel as a 60-40 favourite.

    I too would love to see Kabayel-Hrgovic but it won't happen this year, maybe next year.

    Kabayel's next fight will be announced next week, and it will be in Germany against a "top ten" heavyweight, according to Frank Warren.

    Warren says he is trying to make Hrgovic's next fight in Croatia, likely against his mandatory Frank Sanchez.

    This is the fight Kabayel should have made post Zhang. Tough one to predict, I probably see Kabayel a touch ahead as Hrgo may be too static

    I agree that it's a fight that needs to be fought, but...
    I think it's too early at this moment, more precisely...

    Kabayel fought Kynba on the basis that he was going to be Usyk’s mandatory fight, and like 80% of boxers past and present, he took a stay-busy fight while waiting for the mandatory. Few boxers take high-risk fights while holding a mandatory position, like Parker vs Wardley, so boxers that do this practice do deserve a high level of praise. But I do think a lot of people, not you especially, have to reason you believe this and seem to believe Kabayel is the only boxer to partake in this practice.
