    Would Allen, with his resilience and Power, still be too much for Hrgovic?

    No, Hrgovic would stop him. He's a better, sharper puncher than Fisher.

    Allen knows his level is very much British domestic at the very best, he can hardly be arsed to train, the more elite guys would be too dangerous.

    Hrgovic would hurt Allen.

    This fight shouldn't even be sanctioned if it got announced.

    Please no. Hrgovic is world level. Allen is not. And there’s no punchers chance against Hrgovic. If Zhang couldn’t do it, Allen sure heck can’t.

    the fight would be Allen eating about 200 right hands, with Hrgovic winning every round.

    Allen would be shut out and end up with brain damage. Would be an insanely dumb fight for him to take.

    No just no. Allen is fine on the domestic level and even there he isn't unbeatable but Hrgovic is at least a couple of levels above Allen.

    Dumb question.

    It would be a depressing seal-clubbing.

    If we're looking for an opponent against whom Allen can repeat a surprise win, I would recommend Wardley. He has enough holes in his game to give Allen a chance.

    There is a massive gap in levels here. Even if you had the worst version of Hrgovic who couldnt be arsed, he would still casually rip Allen apart.

    Allen knocks out Hrgovic.

    Hrgovic is another hype job just like Fisher.

    knocks out Hrgovic? Have you watched him fight? He’s got a chin made of concrete. He cuts kind of easily, but he’s incredibly hard to actually hurt. Only Zhang managed to. Even Dubois couldn’t.

    and I think the hype is gone on Hrgovic anyway. He’s got one of the best chins in the division (possibly the best), he’s got great timing and accuracy with his right…. And that’s about it. But with a world class chin and a world class right, he’s still got enough to be a world class fighter, albeit not at the top of the pack.

    Allen loses every single round and quits on his stool against David Price but knocks out Hrgovic?

    Hrgovic is a bum. He has achieved nothing. He lost to a 600 years old Zhang and got destroyed by 2nd grade fighter Dubois.

    Dubois obliterated him. It wasn't due to cuts. He beat him black and blue, beat him to a pulp. Go ahead and watch it, it's on YouTube.
