He is not great, but he is better than all American bums Wilder fought for the title and he is better than all Duhaupas level guys.
He also proved he is better than Breazeale and Breazeale got 2 world title shots.
Wallin should fight Fury for WBC title, I see no problem.
Pretty lousy guys get titles shots these days so I guess he is better than some of them so why not give him a title shot. He won't win but he will put up a decent fight.
LOOOOL
Brezeale is a better???? LOL Brezeale whose only fight before this one was nearly two years ago where he got sent to the shadow realm in about a minute and a half.
The only reason you're talking up Wallin is because he cut Fury.
Man, do you even watch boxing or are you a troll?
Breazeale beat Mansour and Molina before Hrgovic did.
LOL
People say the road to becoming a contender in the UFC is shorter (which is true), but FFS at least heavyweight there seem to fight each other. It INSANE how pretty much half the top 10 boxers havent faced anyone else in the top 10. Bonkers stuff.
While true they're consistently fighting top 10, top 5 HWs to even get in contention for a title shot.
Not that the WBA regular counts for much but in boxing all you have to do currently is beat 40yr old CW journeyman/commentator and you're getting a title shot against a 42yr old Stiverne who lost 3 of his last 4 fights & not fought for 2 years. I don't think Bryan has even beat a top 50 contender.
And the thing is he seems to get more credit for it than Joyce did for splattering a much younger Stiverne. Nobody batted an eyelid when Joyce beat him to a pulp.
Breazeale is better win than any Hrgovic has as a pro.

Give him a title shot but he won't win. It was a solid victory against a former two-time Heavyweight mandatory title challenger.
However, I don't see defeating Anthony Joshua. Perhaps, he has a chance against the aging 50 year old WBA paper champion Manuel Charr.
This is a new day and new generation of Super heavyweights. Unless, you can punch then you won't thrive in this current crop of heavyweight contenders who are punchers.
Not including Parker & Fa, Whyte & Povetkin as they are tied up all these second string HWs like Wallin, Ruiz, Hunter, Kabayel etc need to start fighting each other.
Most of them have done absolutely nothing and are all around the same level. About time they started fighting each other and separating themselves from the rest.

Wins over Molina, the WSB and a far, far more decorated amateur record as well as a bronze medal in the 2016 olympics. LOL he is far more deserving than Wallin could ever hope to be. Whose only real claim to fame is a loss.
Breazeale is better win than any Hrgovic has as a pro.
Usyk & Joyce are so above & beyond these guys and don't have to fight each other but credit to both they're risking it all to earn a shot nobody could say was undeserved. That is how it should be done.
A lack of this is why the HW isn't as appealing as it once was.
All these fat, part time boxers just sitting around expecting title shots for beating some gatekeeper type once a year. Its so lame.

What has Hrgovic done to deserve anything?

What have Washington, Duhaupas, Ortiz , Breazeale, Molina done to deserve it?
What is wrong with you, casual?
Technically he had a title fight against Tyson Fury, and currently right now? The only champion who fight him is Tyson Fury.
If Anthony Joshua faced Wallin, he would still be criticised.
For losing against Fury and beating Breazeale. Man, what's wrong with you?

Why? Because he beat a faded out plodder in Brezeale who was dismantled by Joshua nearly five years ago and was blasted out by Wilder in one round?
Usyk, Joyce, Hrgovic, Povetkin, and possibly even Whyte are all way more deserving of a look in. Wallin is riding way too much on "almost winning" a fight he actually lost pretty much every round in. If not for the cut he wouldn't even be worthy of discussion.

I think after the undisputed HW between Fury and Joshua, we would see a lot of title fights involving anyone from Wallin to Martin to Joyce to Bryan etc. We might even see Ruiz in the mix if he can get his tune up in before the Fury/Joshua fight. Because those two are going to drop all the belts and do their rematch. The money for the retire would probably result in one of them retiring after that fight. So a lot of these HW boxers need to keep active with their hands not their mouths right now.
