Comments Thread For: Usyk-Hrgovic Mandatory Title Fight Ordered By IBF; Matchroom Requests Immediate Purse Bid

[Bob]

Nothing at all unreasonable demanding that 35 year old Usyk go right back into training for a fight 4 months after his grueling fight with Joshua. Nothing at all unreasonable with that demand.

Yet its ok for Kanye to take 11 month's to make an IMMEDIATE rematch?

Its furrys fault the usyk fight should have been a done deal already. Usyk should throw that belt in the trash.

If it’s Furys fault why would Usyk throw his belt in the trash ? That’s hurting himself not Fury in pursuit of getting any chances of the undisputed fight ? Lol

[juggernaut666]

Hearn has already admitted multiple times to ducking Fury.
First it was because he was offended by Fury calling him and AJ "dossers". He said Fury vs AJ would not happen unless AJ was given respect.
Then it was "AJ is not good enough to fight Fury so he needs to rebuild by fighting 2 gatekeepers"
And now it's "AJ needs a mental health break. He is not mentally ready to box again".

Fury wanted to fight Usyk in December but Usyk declined because he needed to heal yet a couple weeks ago said he was healthy enough to fight.

Please get a brain . Lol

Matchroom are gonna try and force Usyk to vacate the belt in order to fight Fury. Leaving Hrgovic vs Joshua for the vacant IBF title. Sets up Fury vs Joshua for undisputed.

If the IBF do strip Usyk for choosing to unify with Fury they’re a disgrace. Usyk deserves his shot at undisputed.

The IBF mandatory is two months overdue ,it’s Furys fault he chose not to negotiate a fight with Usyk and insisted on stay busy fights instead for no reason and not signing a set date to fight Usyk early 2023 and still could have had his little fight with Chisora which would have held the IBF off .

The IBF has never had pleasant dealings with Fury last time also he led everyone to believe he was fighting Joshua for months and Hearn had to continuously write letters to the IBF to postpone their mandatory fight with Povetkin , in this instance it’s not Hearn involved it’s Saurland who represents Hrgovic and ultimately up to the IBF should any changes be made .

The forum is so dumb it’s unbelievable they think Hearn is involved in the push for the IBF mandatory like Hearn is in charge of sanctioned bodies , I never seen so many ****** posters on a single forum in my life and your probably the worst one because you act think your intelligent on here. It’s not at all Furys fault right ? Lol .

Don't be silly. Usyk deserves nothing. He's only beaten Joshua. Everyone knew the mandatories would be called. Fury and Usyk had chance to make the undisputed fight but both wanted to line their pockets more first before fighting. They've got no-one else to blame but themselves

[Goatintheboat]

Well, now we have to wait and see if Hregovic will accept step aside money, otherwise it’s Usyk - Hregovic in the first quarter of 2023.

Who would he step aside for?

[Goatintheboat]

Eddie is gonna try to squeeze a big step aside check or throw a wrench in it

I doubt it. Matchroom have a stake in Hrgovic and the IBF won't allow Joshua to fight Usyk again so soon. The fight will happen and Eddie Hearn will be praying for a Hrgovic win to give Joshua the next shot. All said and done it's still a HW fight so easy to sell.

[Goatintheboat]

This is actually a better fight then Fury stylistically. Should Hrgovic be on point it could be a rough night for Usyk win or lose . If Ronnie Shiekds and Hrgovic go over the last fight and make those changes not sure I’d be so confident in a Usyk win , Hrgovic has the second most awkward style out of the super heavyweights after Fury but has heavier hands .

Did you see Hrgovic in his last fight?!? He needs to get on the ham n eggs to fight Usyk

[thack]

Usyk looked average against the heavyweights he fought until he hammered Joshua twice but that was no great feat as Joshua had already been hammered and stopped. Hrgovic looked poor ins last fight despite the hype so there really is no big favourite here.If Usyk had not opted to take time out until 'early in '2023' then the fight we'd be watching in three weeks is not a warm up with Chisora but the undisputed between Fury v Usyk and this fight that nobody really wants to see wouldn't even be discussed and Hrgovic would have time to improve his game. Once Fury has stopped Chisora it will be full steam ahead for Fury v Usyk which trumps all mandatories and if Joshua and Hearn have any balls at all he should try and position Joshua in there with Hrgovic but he maybe see's this as too lively and prefers an opponent he has already knocked out as the easier route after his 'mental rest'.

[MulaKO]

It is Usyks fault he literally said not fighting till 2023

Brother , Fury was pulling a Canelo on Usyk
Forcing him to fight right away would of benefitted Fury to the max
Ffs , we have fighters who fight once a year but all of a sudden we’re laying blame on Usyk ?
