    I remember when a lot of posters were calling Makhmudov the next big thing and claimed that Fury and Joshua were scared of him. I always said he was a worse version of Deontay Wilder.

    Do you really think this guy is going to develop Tyson`s head movement or hand speed?

    Told ya guys. Makhmudov IS overrated and his power isn't as scary as people claimed.

    He hits hard yeah. I mean he's a big boy. But he's not some monstrous Ivan Drago like killer puncher. He stopped a couple of bums and journeyman a bit quicker than other guys but in the end we now found out (both against Wach and Takam) that he's nothing special at all. Look what Chisora did to Takam. Look what Bakole did to Wach (i know Makhmudov stopped him earlier but Bakole buckled him with almost every punch).

    He has an amazing chin. Wilder would have to ping him frequently to KO him but I would imagine Makhmudov would just ragdoll Wilder around who would be 20-40lbs lighter than him.

    Hrgovic is a lot better than Makhmudov.

    I haven't written off Hrgovic because he actually have skills and a focused Hrgovic can be a difficult night for almost everyone.

    Makhmudov is just a power puncher with limited skills.

    yeh Hrgovic is the better all round fighter, younger and quicker.

    They both need to change trainers like Lewis did after he got sparked by McCall.
