    Shade of a C- fighter, had he been in there with a guy with a gas tank he'd have been brutally ko'ed

    Dubois has been on the floor more than a rug ....The whole division is at about a C+ level

    Easily

    To quote myself

    Hrgovic has never displayed anything but a cast-iron chin.

    How is this even debatable? This is the era of 240-280lb giants and savage punching giants and he's shared a ring, whether it be amateur, pro or sparring, with so many of the hardest punchers in the world and a bunch of the hardest punchers of all time

    One of the very few SHWs/HWs in the amateurs to never get dropped or stopped and he fought damn near everyone

    Never dropped in sparring despite among other sharing a ring with Wlad, Haye, The Dosser, Dubois, Fabio. All murderous or massive punchers

    Even when he was a teenager himself

    Look at the flush bombs he ate vs a 34lb heavier murderous punching man mountain Big Bang. He didn't just eat a ton of them he ate many in quick succession whilst buzzed or hurt

    Dubois cracked him with loads of flush bombs

    Moses too

    What’s that got to do with his gas tank or Hrgovics chin?
