There is a possibility that this fight will happen, Zhilei had a very good amateur career and silver from Beijing, this could be a good fight for both fighters, but I still think Hrgovic is better, what do you think?
Top fight for 2 guys who badly need a solid opponent to take them to the next level. The winner would be straight into title consideration.
Zhilei is well past his prime, he's fighting once per year and is slowing down compared to his amateur career. He had 4 fights in the last 3 years. Hrgovic easily wins.
Beating Zhieli won't help Hrgovic advance much. I want Hrgovic vs. the highest rated IBF person. Charles Martin, Mike Hunter, or Pulev should he beat Joshua. These will be easy fights for Hrgovic. Martin wont; last 5 rounds, Hunter has chance on the score cards and zero change to stoppage win but might go the distance. Pulev is way past his prime, but could make it interesting for a few rounds. The gap between alphabet top ten contenders these days and the people Hrgovic is destroying is not a big one. I've been watching Hrgovic on interview lately, he understands who's out there and can be funny. Although he won't get much credit for it, his defense looked better vs. Booker.
