    A very even fight in my opinion, Hrgovic has an exceptional chin and that could be the key to victory, but he would have to pay attention to the defense, which he neglects too often...

    It depends how bad Dubois has damaged Joshua mentally, if Joshua has returned to the deer in the headlights, gun shy Joshua of Franklin and Helenius then I think he loses.

    If he fights braver and let's his hands go then I'd view it a 50-50 fight

    Honestly I don't know. Neither of them seem that arsed any more, like they're fine just being celebrities.

    If they could get back the eye of the tiger this would be great, but I'm not sure if that's possible.

    Also not sure what resistance either still has.

    Both took a beating off Dubois.

    Conveniently they've both just fought the same guy, so we can use that as a measuring stick.

    Hrgo did significantly better. It's not even close. He would have to be the favorite.

    I'm sure someone will be here shortly and get carried away writing about how "...if the old, angry AJ shows up, he'll definitely win!" as if there's some unbeatable, mythical "prime" version of Joshua.

    Whilst Hrgovic did much better against Dubois than Joshua styles made fights and all that.

    Hrgovic isn't a particularly big puncher. He's also pretty lazy and predictable. Joshua has enough decent moves to score well against Hrgovic although doubt he stops him. I can see Joshua outworking him to a UD.

    Although Hrgovic's new perm may give him extra ktfo power. Who knows.
