    I guess if there is one other bright side to this happening instead, it means the IBF will have their mandatory fulfilled, so at least they won't strip the winner of undisputed after a week. Y'know, assuming it ever happens in the first place :lol:

    It won't happen, some privileged British or American will get a chance, that's how it works...

    Hrgovic must accept fight no matter what, if he rejects it he will lose mandatory status, they can litteraly ask him to fight Usyk for like 200k, what is he gonna do?

    If he accepts he will get low money, and have two weeks to prepare, while Fury had a year. If he loses he is done, finished.

    Usyk should take it. Hrgovic has been long overdue for the IBF mandatory.

    What are we talking about, 2 weeks isnt enough to prepare for 3 belt southpaw world champion.

    It's not fair to throw Usyk in the ring at the age of 38 with those giants for non title fights.

    He deserves the undisputed title fight right now. Strip the Fraud King of WBC belt and make Usyk vs Hrgovic the undisputed title fight.

    I think the cut is legit. But I am not surprised that it happened to Fury. It’s starting to get hard to argue against him getting stripped.

    If Hrgovic wants to step in and Usyk accepts more power to them. If needed just put it on the March card.

    So Hrgovic - Usyk.

    Just what Fury team wanted all along. Clear as day. Age Usyk out even more, and make him fight more hard fights against top HW ...

    If this happens Usyk would have fought more HW title mandatories in 6 months than Fury has in his entire career.

    That's an incredible statistic.

    Make it happen, it’s still a very good fight and Hrgovic is a tough guy. He should push Usyk.
