    Douglas is American, americans dont have family bonds like balkan people, and mother is a mother, father is a father, also Douglas is Douglas, and Hrgovic is Hrgovic, and I am I, and you are you. Also, 1 day after death and 4 weeks is not the same.This is most bull**** argument I have ever heard.

    Very dangerous fight. Joshua is just one fight removed from the Usyk beatings, and is adjusting to a new style. Hrgovic has the better long-guard, more well rounded and educated skillset, and brings to the table much better chin along with comparable (though inferior) power.

    I'm not hesitant to say Filip for sure, because I rate Joshua higher skill-wise than some, and Hrgovic only had one elite opponent in Zhang, though at the end of the day, amount of fights aside, Joshua very rarely if ever faced somebody as dangerous as Zhilei.

    Americans don't have bonds with their family like Balkan people do, and yet apparently my argument is BS ok then what a ridiculous statement. People all over the world have very close relationships with their parents WTF.

    Buster Douglas said in an interview he was very close to his mom and it devastated him, and he was hurting coming into ring with Tyson thinking about it. So that proves your theory to be absolute nonsense doesn't it since Douglas who was "American" was very close to his mom.

    An in actual fact Douglas's mom died just a few weeks before Tyson fight, where as Hrgovic had the opportunity to reschedule his fight with Zhang for few months in advance due to his loss. Hrgovic's dad died in April and he was able to reschedule his May fight with Zhang to August.

    So it was worse for Douglas who had to fight through it, not being able to reschedule his fight with Tyson to have time to grieve. Not to mention Tyson was the most feared fighter on the planet at that time.

    Joshua will never fight a guy like Hrgovic. From here on out based on who he is fighting next he'll be fighting low risk cash-out fights.

    Incidentally, re-watching Hrgovic/Zhang I gave it to Hrgovic by a point. The rounds Hrgovic won were clear, and there were some rounds Zhang won that could have gone either way.

    Dude, keep defending americans and their familiar bonds. Also people all over the world have vvery close relationships? bull****. There are only few places - balkan, italy, turkey, with some satelites. The whole nordic people, often childern dont even come to the funeral of their parents. Chinese breed like dogs, the strongest dog has fathers approval, dont let me talk about Japan and their bonds. And for you information, if americans are so loving to their parents, why are like 80% of parents put in retirement homes, or so called "eldery community", USA has the most profitable retirement industry in the world, why are you lying.

    Also, you ignored the rest of the argument, meaning you lost.

    What argument have i lost ? all your doing is waffling on about nonsense, losing a parent is hard on anyone no matter where you come from if your close to your parents. Your claiming it's harder for Hrgovic because "Balkan people have better family bonds" that's the biggest pile of crap i've ever heard and a very low IQ post.

    I already disproved your other claims aswell you claimed Hrgovic had "1 day" which it total crap. His dad died in April and he was allowed to reschedule his May fight until August so he had months to grieve. Douglas on the other hand his mom died a few weeks before and wasn't allowed to reschedule his fight so he had less time to grieve.

    Douglas also stated he was a very close to his mom, and he was still very effected by it and was hurting coming into ring with Tyson. But no according to you because Douglas is "American" this can't be true what a silly person you are.

    Let's also look at some other "facts" Hrgovic was fighting an almost 40 year old Zhang, who had never beaten a top 10 ranked Heavyweight, and up until that point had a very unremarkable professional career. Douglas on the other hand was fighting the most feared fighter on the planet, who was P4P number 1 and the best Heavyweight in the world. So would it not be worse on Douglas since he was fighting a much better opponent whilst having less time to grieve ?

    Lastly i can't be bothered to debate with you anymore because your not worth my time, i think you're a troll or just have some weird anti America agenda. It's also hilarious that your claiming i'm defending America when i'm not even American, just because i'm saying losing a parent is hard on anyone.

    Your on my ignore list so yeah bye.

    They also keep insisting that Helenius is taller, despite live physical evidence presented by eyes, after a long pause "the soles on AJs trainers are huge..." hahahha great. "AJ would have fought anyone. Hrgov - Helenius has a big opportunity."
