Comments Thread For: Filip Hrgovic Searches For New Opponent As Michael Hunter Reportedly Opts Out IBF Title Eliminator

[tophat1]

I thought hunter was one of those guys that would take on all challengers, will have to see who he fights next before we call it a duck but it looks that way

he may be thinking an ibf mando is worthless unless the belts get vacated. Pulev mando was taken care of recently so the IBF may be a few years away from getting another. Surely they will be at the back of the queue.

If Joshua -Fury winner vacates IBF title, all guys will be in hurry to fight eliminator.

No ones in a rush to do that because Hrgovic is the brick wall in the elimination bout . The actions of Hunter is not even something you can defend anymore . No one wants to be rushed against Hrgovic. We’ll see if Martin ducks now and see if Parker runs away if it comes down to him , I know he still remembers the L Hrgovic handed to him in the ams and he’s no Junior Fa ,he’s the real deal .

Dude just posted a video from Fury's camp like a week ago.

But that doesn`t mean he couldn`t fight Hrgovic, does it?

I mean, it'd be big money to pay a training partner not to fight...maybe if Fury made him a coach? I was implying the other way though, no good reason for him to not be fighting.

He's in shape and ready I'd imagine given he's working with Tyson.

Dude's either scared or mad at Eddie for dropping him, some such similar nonsense

[Scopedog]

Weak. I would have given him a good chance against Hrgovic too, I've seen little from him that suggests that he's particularly skilled. It seems like that draw with Povetkin just completely brought the good career momentum he had to a grinding halt.

Maybe he'll put up again at *shudders* bridgerweight...

Just looked on his Twiter account, his feed seems to be full of Fury and the Top Rank gym so I’m guessing he’s signed a contract with TR and Arum doesn’t want him to take the fight?

if this is true then its a really poor show from Hunter

Would make sense - Arum has blocked more fights than I've had hot dinners

[Bronx2245]

How is he getting a better fight ? That’s his only way into an A.J fight .

You know he’s not fighting Usyk and Wilder is a farce because I don’t see Wilder risking it against a sound boxer with a decent punch known to give big heavyweight guys trouble .

That's why Joshua chose Ruiz instead of Hunter, even though Hunter was with MatchRoom at the time. Hearn said "the networks didn't like his style," but you and I know better! Wilder probably won't do it either! What does Usyk do while we get Fury vs. Joshua twice?

It's probably Eddie's fault. I know that snake did something, I just don't know what.
