Ruiz and Gassiev refuse to fight Hrgovic

Hunter was offered the bigger half and he refused.

 

Half of what? What’s the amount of the offer?

 

Hearn won the purse bid with $606,666. 60% for Hunter and 40% for Hrgovic.

 

at least hughie would step up un like these clowns

 

IBF should remove completely from their rankings the ones who are not interested in fighting for their belt, whats the point?

Joyce
Parker
Kabayel
Ruiz Jr
Gassiev maybe

McKean and Zhang should both accept. Hughie will.

Im still gutted IBF denied Yoka the oportunity. They should at least give team Yoka and Hrgovic the option to sort something out. Imagine a 4 men tournament:
Yoka x Bakole
Hrgovic x Zhang
Winners meet up for the mandatory shot. Exciting I'd say

The IBF belt is stuck with the rematch and the undisputed fights this year, it would be a great way of keeping the fighters active and making the mandatory legit and deserving.

 

What?

 

I fixed it..I wasn't aware you were part of the grammer police....

 

No-no, I genuinely don't understand some things because my English I run through Google Translate
and am curious. Please, do not think I would correct you for it is I who am not accustomed, my friend, please.

 

Ah no worries. I'm usually working or doing other things so I type very quickly and will sometimes have spelling or grammer errors.
I do edit then afterwards when I notice them I just don't always see them when I post.
No offense taken.
Take it easy.

 

I did not understand some of this but I thank you for your graceward ways and means. When I come to Grammer and see your local police, I will assume that they are...not to be trifled upon. But we could perhaps have takeout, maybe Jewish or Chinese. Eat outside, on a campground or something, 'round a fire.

 

To be fair to Gassiev he's coming off a long injury lay off and would probably want an easier opponent,.

Ruiz , like alot of heavyweights, just doesn't seem to want to fight.

Like others have said enough's enough. Just make Hrgovic the mandatory already.

 

Nothing is a "100% certainty"

Rematch clauses and possible undisputed fights take precedence over mandatories. Even if some guy fights and beats Hrgovic , they may not be any closer to a title shot as Whyte was two years ago. They know its not as simple as - beat this guy and get a guaranteed title shot.

There's other guys who have a mandatory claim too like Joe Joyce. He beat far better opponents than Hrgovic , is pushing 40 and is still nowhere near a title shot despite being made mandatory challenger last year.. Nobody seems to care about Joe Joyce being frozen out.

The fact of the matter is nobody is going to take the lower % of a small purse to fight a guy with a Nathan Gorman / Daniel Dubois level resume.

The IBF can be blamed for that. They should have a 50-50 split for finial eliminators. And if Hrgovic wants to fight a big name and former Unified Champ like Ruiz , he should be prepared to take the lower end of the split. Because Ruiz doesn't need to box his way up the ranks anymore. He's been there and done that already

 

Is also injured.

 

That’s peanuts. Eddie pays that for the fourth fight down the undercard. No wonder nobody wants it.
