oo nice so this is gonna be on DAZN I wonder if it'll be its own card or if it'll be on the undercard of some fight Hrgovic and Hunter are both very talented but their not very big names rn I think it would be smart to put it on the undercard of a big fight like Garcia vs Fortuna.
I think Hunter's contract with Matchroom expired. He was always a Haymon fighter even when signed to Matchroom but now he's upped his profile with the help of Matchroom it seems no longer with them as his last fight was not promoted by Matchroom.
High risk and low reward for both fighters. I like it very much Hunter is very good but not quite elite and Hrgovic looks like a stud. I will probably get behind Hrgovic because I see more upside.
Hunter seems like a guy that will fight anybody. I like that about him. Hrgovic has been hyped heavily but has fought pretty much nobody. We know what level Hunter is at. This fight will really show what level Hrgovic is at.
Hrgovic has a granite chin , he'll absorb everything Hunter throw at him , too big , too strong , KO win for the croatian.
I guess maybe also because high level fights at HW is difficult to negotiate and they cost a lot $. If he was someone like Usyk ( cos had 5 belts at CW and vacated them when moved up ) they most likely had booked for him fight vs Chisora, Chisora doesn't cherry pick. The problem maybe is that Chisora is expensive.
He was the last time I checked but if he is no longer with him that would explain why he was on some unheard of promoters show in his last fight. Surprised that Matchroom dropped him, while he isn't a big name or a big draw he obviously is a decent heavyweight and would always make a good opponent for any of Matchroom's stable of heavyweights.
Absorbing blows at HW almost never works. HWs are too big and hit too.hard for that to.be an effective strategy. This is especially true at the upper echelons of the division. The best fighters hit too hard for someone to just absorb clean shots. Hrgovic better bring his defense against Hunter.
While ability in some situations to bear a punch and after this deliver more punches on opponent is very valuable in boxing, this isn't main strategy in any weight class. Smaller boxers too does have enough power for their size and surprisingly had delivered in coffins more ppl than HW boxers. Absorb too much blows is proved as to be too dangerous for life and long term health.
