Croatia never had a great Pro boxing infrastructure (Their amateur program was good), they always lacked the resources that the British, Americans and Russians had when it came to PRO boxing.
I feel that we are off topic. So, what about Mavrović (1998) against recent HW top ten fighters + Usyk ?
Nonsense. Lewis tried to knock him clean out every round. Lewis was a guy who would always go for the KO They don't pay me over time - being one of his post fight quotes. Marovic was forced to retire , he had unfulfilled potential. Was Priog just a Euro nobody too? No, they were two very skilled boxers who were forced to retire. Merovic was just one of many examples which prove what a mediocre HW Vitali was. I could see Mavrović slipping an countering Vitali to pieces
Very durable but had no more than average skills. We have a Mavrovic in this era and his name is Johann Duhaupas.
Anybody who thinks Johann Duhaupas could do to Lewis what Mavrović did is a straight up clown who dksab. Johann Duhaupas is a Mike Grant level HW.
i remember the network making a bigger deal over mavrovic's hot fiancee, than they did about him. the fight itself stunk. almost klitschko-fury bad.
nobody but you believes a darn thing you spew. not a handful of iq points at your disposal. if shockmaster isn't an alt of yours, he is probably a long lost twin.
