    His best hope is to get mandatory status. It's that simple. He's #6 in the IBF and #8 in the WBC rankings. Being on Matchroom and aligned with DAZN means there is money behind him. It's not impossible. There are skilled HWs in far worse positions. Look at Ivan Dychko. Look what Romanov did with his career.

    I think he’s got a bright future!

    Did well in the amateurs.

    Was main sparring partner for the likes of Haye and Pulev in the past.

    fighting style similar to Vitali

    Hopefully he’s managed properly and we see him fight the likes of hunter and Ortiz soon

    I think people need to forget Ortiz, let him disappear. Ancient AND got two shots at beating wilder. Time to pack it in.

    hunter fight I would be very interested in

    since you’ve posted a staggering 63000 messages on here, with a horrendous post to like ratio, maybe you can enlighten me why I never watched, or haven’t watched it?

    I gave turner 2 rounds. One judge had it closer. I just want a discussion about a fighter I’m not convinced about, and there has been some good incite from knowledgeable posters that’s made me rethink his title credentials and talent.

    Since you are the obvious expert on hrgovic please enlighten me on his strengths and flaws, and how you scored the big sexy fight.....oh let me guess 80-72?

    I rarely take this internet anonymous nonsense seriously but you sir are a dweeb with naff all to say.

    thanks for all the other contributions

    He's clearly a top prospect, only Joyce has a better resume with so few fights. But anyone rating him right now in the top 10 are off their rocker. You have to earn a ranking you don't get given it based on potential, ranking a fighter based on potential or what you think they could do, without actually doing anything is bonkers in my opinion.

    Hard so say how far he will go. He has decent power, size, good fundamentals and a good amateur back ground. But right now based on his current skill set I'd see a number of fighters in the top 10 beat him up badly. How far he goes depends on how much he improves.

    He started pretty well as a pro in terms of opp. Then it's been mostly just side steps

    would it be more impressive stopping Bakole or hunter? Seeing as hunter stopped Bakole.

    Bakole has improved since then an is packing concussive power, which will chin check hrgovic at some point

    I predict fowler and Bakole will be sacrificial lambs, just bring bad press

    I actually think its a role reversal with Fowler and Fitz long term
    Eddie would rather that imo
