    • Hrgovic clearly anticipated this, and armed himself with high powered attorney Greg Smith and advisor Keith Connolly in March of this year.
    • Eddie Hern doesnt even mention Hrgovic anymore, and Kalle Saurland "defended" his 2 million dollar invesment strongly in this video

    • Hrgovic hasnt said nothing, not a beep on Social media
    • There is no lawsuit on IBF, there is nothing from boxing insiders, very strange considering IBF has not had mandtaroy for almost 4 years and Hrgovic sat on the number 1 spot for almost 3 years
    • Usky-Fury wont have him fight for at least 2025. and that is big if

    Not sure what laywer is capable of protesting the biggest heavyweight fight in decades, backed by Saudi money and the sanctioning bodies.

    That's because we knew that Hrgovic wouldn't get a chance, Hearn doesn't care about him, nor does Sauerland, who isn't willing to give Hrgovic a good fight because he doesn't want to pay or doesn't have anything to pay with...

    Everything at HW has taken a back seat to the proposed unification. That's one reason this year has been a disaster for the division.

    With Wilder vs Joshua getting canned, maybe Hrgovic will get to fight one of those guys. I doubt it, tho.

    What Filip can do?
    Unification was always more important than mandatory fights.
    Filip can do sh...
    IBF even if they are the "cleanest" federation still dont quit massive payday from unification to take care of 1 dude who is number one in rankings.

    There is possibility that Usyk vs Fury dont happend soo quick but it will be good excuse for both.

    Filip should look for other good fight with top 10 where he will be build his mark. Right now wainting for belts fight is just silly. Even when it happend in this year its pretty sure that they will do reematch first. Belts can be blocked for whole next year even.

    Filip and Zhang must catch other oppurtinitys.

    If the fight is actually on then that is the most obvious explenation.

    I suspect Hrgovic hasn't been paid any step aside money but if his legal team could in anyway jeopardize Usyk vs Yellow Belly I suspect the Saudis would compensate him handsomely. I hope that's what happens

    Nobody is rescuing Usyk. Isn't this the fight his fans wanted?

    They stripped Fury less than a week after he won the belts from Wlad, knowing full-well there was a rematch clause. My guess is they let a first fight between these two go ahead because unifications come before mandatories. The winner will be IBF champ for about a week to a month before they enforce the mandatory fight.

    Whatever happens, Fury/Usyk winner will be seen as the best guy in the division, regardless of how many belts they hold. Hrgovic is really in no rush, he's still young. Of the mandatories left right now, it's Zhang who needs to focus on big fights as soon as he can get them.

    Very much this... why not hold onto that card and either:
    A) Fight the winner (if it's Usyk) for all the belts and probably a bigger purse, with Usyk being older and potentially more beatable.
    Or
    B) Fight someone else for that strap if Fury wins and retires to avoid the rematch.

    I know there's rematch clauses but I can't see the rematches actually happening... if Fury wins he'll spout a load of nonsense and retire without honouring it and if Usyk wins convincingly (which I think he does) I can see Fury avoiding getting beaten twice by the same guy by not activating it - I don't think his ego would stand it and I don't think Fury has the same desperation to try to avenge a loss that Joshua or Wilder do...
    Besides, let's not forget Fury retired once to avoid a rematch against someone he beat which he'd probably have lost - why wouldn't he retire rather than rematch someone that'd already beaten him?

    I think Hrgovic might well think the division opens up for him sooner by letting this happen...
    Fury won't stay active, let alone hold all the belts and I'm not sure Usyk wouldn't drop one or two once he'd proven himself the best either.

    Hrgovic will get his chance in time. Fury-Usyk is the ticket, let it happen for all the belts.
