    Comments Thread For: Michael Hunter: Hearn, Sauerland Talked Triller Out Of Hrgovic Purse Bid

    Michael Hunter's one and only experience with purse bids revealed to him the hazards of being a free agent in boxing. The heavyweight contender was criticized in the spring for turning down an IBF heavyweight eliminator against highly regarded Croatian Filip Hrgovic after the matchup went to a purse bid and was won by Hrgovic's co-promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom, who, incidentally, was Hunter's former promoter for a brief stretch. Hunter, however, had no promotional backing, thus, no leverage to negotiate a better deal for himself.

        Cant blame Hunter for chasing the easiest paydays rather then the glory thats his choice but why carry on talking sh**, you chose your career path just shut up and get on with it.

          That doesn’t sound right. Why would Triller listen to them and not involve themselves in a purse bid but then sign you to a fight deal anyways? That explanation doesn’t make any sense.

            Hunter is a sure fire bet to pick up the Deontay Wilder award this year. He simply does not have any competition here.

            To make shlt up in his head is becoming the norm for him now. No one from Trilla has told him this. Eddie did not tell him this. Why would they when it isn't true? It wouldn't benefit Trilla to do so. Why would Eddie attempt to do so?

            Absurd, really is. Haha.

              Hrgovic ain't no boggyman, he unproven and ain't fight nobody and he's already 29 been pro for 4 years. The IBF need to ordered Martin vs Hrgovic, Martin had a injury when the IBF ordered Hunter vs Martin and as for Hunter doing low risk high reward like 98 percent of these boxers and he going the wba route, Hrgovic need to Bakole or Arsanbek Mahmadov. IBF getting cold feet ordering a final eliminator months ago.

                The entire top 15 all declined, they are going to try again from the start .
                Martin, Bakole all said no various reasons, Martins injury was well suspect an dhe could easily have got himself that fight back if he wanted it.

                Mahmadov isn't in the top 15.

                No way Triller wouldn't bid against Hearn again.
