    Sadly this would be the cokehead’s strategy as he fights an MMA fighter next and spends very little energy in the bout. Not fair to Usyk how this is shaping out…

    Forget Fury

    He has become a waste of time

    Real fans know he has become a fraud and even if he does fight Usyk soon, his antics won't be forgotten

    Yup…Usyk is a generational talent. Journeymen fighters like Zhang and Hrgovic only have a puncher’s chance imo…

    I know what you mean. Journeyman might be a bit harsh though, they are legit contenders but there's quite a few levels between a contender and an ATG.

    Almost the whole IBF top 15 declined a final eliminator vs Hrgovic twice, the point is that if your opponents in the rankings won't fight you, eventually you become mandatory.

    Hrgovic is ready to step up, Usyk will win, but Hrgovic will leave a great impression.

    Hrgovic stops Usyk in my opinion.

    Reading the comments can’t believe how many are picking soft belly. He just got stopped by a fighter below Hrgovic’s level, fair enough other than that he boxed Dubois’s head off.

    Hrgovich will just pressure him til he stops him.

    How is it not fair? He just got stopped by Dubois.

    If him and Krassyk had any sense they’d have took the fight when they had the chance.

    Why not ? Hrgovic beat Zhang who is currently ranked the number 4 Heavyweight in the world, Dubois i agree didn't deserve a shot but i have no problem with Hrgovic getting a shot.

    Hrgovic will struggle to land anything, he is too slow and basic for Usyk. His only chance is being allowed to get away with low blowing by a more lenient ref than the one in the Dubois fight.

    Usyk should ztop caring about undisputed. Definitly not give Fury his way by being letting him age him out.
    Let Fury be the ducking cliwn champ while everyone considers him the real champ.

    Exactly, history will remember that Fury is the one who ducked the fight several times. The comments he is making now on video exposing himself as a ducking coward are safely stored away and can be used as evidence in future years when Fury's delusional fanboys attempt to rewrite history.
