    He's not that good, but I am sorry he can't get the fights.

    l don't have too much expectations about him anymore, months go by and not a single fight in sight and there is no excuse for that, there are good fighters out there like Wallin who would love to fight Hrgovic and that fight would be very easy to arrange, I don't know what more could I write about Hrgovic...

    He is unlucky, just look at other HW's from EU

    I dont know what is happening, nobody wants to fight him in the top 5, but I also think nobody wants him even in top 20. He can have Jared Anderson if he beats Zhan, but young blood will be ranked higher than him, will he accept a fight from him then, I doubt. He can fight his rival Tony Yoka, but to what purpose.

    It seem to me that he is waiting Usyk-Dubois, if Usyk wins, he should be next.

    He is waiting for Usyk-Dubois, he lawyered up. The question is if Usyk can get out from his mandatory obligatiion after being done with Dubois (if he wins ofcourse). I think he can, and if that fight goes in 26th, that is practically september, he could tehnically still fight Fury December.

    Big problem is not fighting. He should fight Jared Anderson if the boy wins Zhan on July 1

    I don't know what prevented him from being a replacement for Kossobutskiy, who dropped out due to visa problems...

    who the hell is Jared Anderson to have replacment who is IBF mandatory number 1, that makes no sense because marketing is done and all, Hrgovic would get pennys and would stake mandatory position, Jared would get millions and would not stake anything but his 0 from which he can recover because he is young

    Official fight yes, but being replacment for top 20 something guy would be disgrace for himself

    Also, I dont get why Hrgovic doesnt attack Ortiz/Sanchez/Bakole/Whyte, or at least start calling them out for cowardice

    I don’t think the top HWs are scared of him, he’s quite beatable. There’s just no money behind him. No highly ranked fighter is going to accept taking the short bag of a 400k purse bid.
