Comments Thread For: Hunter Aims To Topple Hrgovic, Secure Shot at Fury-Joshua Winner

[Boxingfanatic75]

The 90's HWs were a bunch of midget stiffs. Fury destroys all of them, including Iron Mike, and Joshua probably KO's most of them as well.

Joshua has a glass jaw and is a robot. Joshua wouldn’t even make the HW scene in the 90s and be a complete unknown.
Joshua would take a nap to
Tyson
Holyfield
Lewis
Bowe
Moorer
Mercer
Bruno
Toney
Tua
Ruddock
Morrison

I think exactly the same 75
I alway's compare Aj today to Michael Grant & look how well he did xD

Funny how Team Hrgovic made it looked like they made offers to Hunter already, when Hunter replied about not receiving any offers then they backtrack and are trying to contact their co-promoter to try and get a purse bid on.

Anyways this is a lovely matchup on paper, doesn’t mean it would be a lovely fight in the ring.

Lol at making lists of who Joshua would lose to from the 90s. Comparing across eras is pointless because it is simply untestable opinion.

All I can say is that if you went back to the 90s and magically transported Holyfield to 2021 for a fight with AJ, he wouldn't get past the drug testing.

BS Bowe could ko any of them and Holyfield would outbox them too. Not to mention Lennox lewis who would probably destroy all of them too.

Lewis perhaps, Holyfield and Bowe get schooled.

Thanks, and it’s completely true. People are trying to keep boxing relevant and I get that. However, let’s not pretend that the HW division is anything other than what it was during Larry Holmes time. He was a victim of a bad time during the division and this may even be worse than that.

....Everyone in the know , knows he’s going to be the champion at some point ,it’s why Wlad himself said he’s the next champion 3 years ago . Anyone fighting him now,is in over their heads , Hunter has no idea what he’s walking into saying things like he has no jab and doesn’t hit hard .

Maybe. Maybe not. I've seen enough boxing to know that the Amateurs and WSoB are not the professional ranks. Sparring stories are just that, otherwise Joey Dawejko and Paul Spadafora would have wins over Joshua and Mayweather respectively.

Filip may have that ultimate success that those "in the know" know....but my eyeballs tell me he needs alot more development before that happens. Only time will tell.

Well both are essentially blown up Cruiserweights looking to use speed and technique to win. I don't think they are pillow fisted so much as they are undersized.

Really? I saw flip hit heavybag he looked heavy handed?

I was referring to a comment made about Hunter and Usyk not having heavy hands. Hrgovic certainly appears to have very impressive power. My apologies if I wasn't clear in who I was referencing.

My bad I jumped gun......sorry. I didn't read the quote in your post which would have helped make your post clear. My mistake
