    What you are saying is that he refuses to fight. You are dumbass. He has been calling out everyone for 2 years, but you know that, and IBF has ordered down the ladder 2 times, everybody except Yoka and Zhang refused, but you know that.

    Zhang arguably won the fight, Hrgovic looked awful and then refused the rematch.

    He didnt, you watched DAZN highlights instead the whole fight did you? Look at it again, the latter half Zhang threw max of 10 punches, even when he did land a "hard one" Hrgovic was still standing, and throwing double amount of punches, and Zhang had completley gassed out. It wasnt a pretty win, but it is a win. Ofcourse he looked awful, his father has died 2 weeks before. When has he refused a rematch, give me source, since I know Joyce took him on, and have Hrgovic on youtube saying he wants Zhang rematch. Why do you lie, are you chinese?

    I’m saying he should fight. The IBF isn’t a promoter. It hasn’t stopped him from fighting.

    You really DKSAB do you? He’s a contender. His promoter isn’t being stopped from making fights, nor is he being stopped from participating in fights. He’s just not fighting.

    Calling out people vs. offering contracts and making fights are completely different things.

    Why are you lying. Pero Hrgovic died 4 months before the Zhang fight, not 2 weeks.

    Memory betrayal, nothing else. But big sorrow for Croatian family, diffrent culture unlike others.

    Fight who? His promoters cant get him fights because he isnt big name, nor will he ever be. IBF isnt mention as promoter, but as a body that ORDERED 10+ people to fight, and all of thos people refused to fight, except Zhang and Yoka - first one to accept Hrgovic agreed to fight. He is pushing for fights all the time. As nb1. should he fight for interim heavywegith IBF champion with nb. 200? Are you that stupid?

    Well he could have fought Zhang again since some people disputed the decision.

    If his promoter pays enough, people will fight him. There are tons of guys who will fight him if the money is right. It’s on his promoter to make it happen.

    You actually think every decent heavyweight in the world is scared of him? People didn’t accept because it didn’t pay anything. Team Hrgovic needs to step up and put their money behind their boy and make some fights. Otherwise, he can sit on the sideline til he reaches retirement age.

    72% of fans polled immediately after voted that Zhang won, and 10% voted that it was a draw:

    Acting like he had to watch highlights to think Zhang won is ridiculous. In every community everywhere in the boxing world (Boxingforum, *******, Boxrec forums, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook) the consensus was that Zhang had won. It was a close fight, and you definitely could give it to Hrgovic, but pretending like it's unreasonable to think Zhang won is just nonsensical.

    How did you score it ? I had it 114-113 Zhang I believe but it could have went either way. The scorecards were close and the decision was fair. If Zhang got the decision I wouldn’t have complained. It definitely wasn’t a robbery.

    I believe I've actually said before that it wasn't a robbery, but a gift. Meaning that I felt it could be scored for Hrgovic, but he got lucky that it was, as it probably should have went to Zhang. I had it 115-112 Zhang, and I think up to 114-113 Hrgovic would have been fair.

    Think you've had a memory betrayal in regards to the latter half of that fight too
