    Dececnt fight. I don't think Hrgovic can do anything against the top 3 but he can be the king of the second division. Sort of like an Alexander Povetkin.

    Would like to See DA against someone like Dave Allen.

    :lol:
    He started his career in the 220s. At 242 hes still as soft as always, just slightly less so than he was against Dubois.

    And this is his second fight under Sanchez, and in both occasions his stamina has looked bad.

    Hrgovic dominates but still manages to look unimpressive.

    Adeleye way out of his depth but he has a lot of heart and that left hook is very dangerous. Thought Hrgovic was done there in round 8. Adeleye could be good if he had any sort of stamina.

    Wardley vs Hrgovic is a good fight to make.

    Hrgovic is slow, but he can take a good dig, solid beard!

    wasn't the least bit competitive, except for one round.

    Hrgovic is a problem. He doesn't hit hard enough to be a top guy but he's long, throws a lot ,and has a granite chin. If he didnt cut easy I think he'd have beaten Dubois

    Adeleye put in a decent performance for somebody who isn't world level. Hrgovic won this wide but still an underperformance from him. He has this bizarre lack of power for such a big guy. His lack of power convinced everyone that Dubois had a much better chin than he does, only for him to go against Usyk and get starched by a supposed non puncher.
    He also still overextends himself too much early. I don't think his stamina has ever been as bad as people say, it's just that he throws so many punches trying to stop his opponent that he's left a hittable and sloppy mess by the later parts of the fight when they're still standing. If he paces himself even decently well then he'd be able to go 12 easily.

    500 arm punches.
    The fight was competitive, even tho Hrgovic arguably won every round. It happens every now and then.
    As in the rounds were competitive, but clearly Hrgovic did the better work in all of them.

    There will always be avid Hrgovic worshippers. They claim he was destroying Dubois until the TKO. lol.

    Hrgovic has the best chin in the division. Who else can you make an argument for? Usyk is the only one

    He's never been dropped amateur or pro and has a poor defence and he's fought and sparred a lot of huge punchers, the biggest punchers in the sport, murderous punchers

    Yet Usyk obliterated Dubois and Hrgovic didn't. Hrgovic throws arm punches mixed with one or two straight rights.
