Hrgovic to fight a top 30 guy in December!

[Dr. Z]

The comments were from boxing fans on this very website who were watching the fight live. As I said, to me Joe Joyce has looked much more impressive than Hrgovic if we are talking top contenders at heavyweight.




In regards to up and comers from Eastern Europe there are superior fighters to Hrgovic in my opinion. Makhmudov is one of them.

If you think Makhmudov is better than I can not help you. He has great power but less, skills, speed, and defense than Hrgovic clearly. He would need a KO to win, And he can be KO'd too. Hrgovic has the better chin which was tested in the amateurs. Mak been down before, and not the for a foul punch, push down and slip. Not saying he has a glass jaw, Far from it. Hrgrovic should win most of the rounds. I've probably seen him more than you have. Using Eastern Europe as a bench mark Hrgovic is probably the best to turn pro since Povetkin. Maybe Jarolov is better. Maybe. Talk to the trainers and the fighters the sparred with. You'll hear top reviews. I know.

Wlad, Haye, Wilder and Little all say he is for real. He has sparred with them and in Little case fought him.

Joyce is more hyped by the UK fans. He's good, but he was stopped in the AM.s and really has issues with speedy fighters.
