Comments Thread For: Hrgovic to Zhang: Let's Do a Rematch in Beijing; I'll Knock Him Out In Front of One Billion Chinese People

True flip needs rematch more than zhang. Zhang and flip knows the world thinks Zhang was hard done by. So Zhang don't need rematch at all.
people want to see Zhang fight fury, not flip to fight fury.

Hrgovic did enough to edge the win. Hrgovic landed 208 to Zhang 154

You do recall that Zhang also dropped Hrgovic right? Furthermore, not all punches are deemed equal. It depends on the effectiveness of the punch and how clean it landed.

You're right. Zhang doesn't need Hrgovic. He's too old to waste time on that rematch. He's in a mandatory position and is nearly 40.

Watchout Filip you could end up being the one getting sparked the fckout in front of 1 billion chinese. Doubt zhang will let it go to the judges second time.

This guy didn't push for the rematch months ago. Why now? Is he running out of cash or what? What's the yapping all about?

That's how I saw it too.

" . .you count the punches, the points.. . "

Someone needs to tell hrgovic that pro boxing doesn't strictly work that way.

But anyways, as neither greedybelly or joshua seem to fancy a Zhang fight let's see the rematch with hrgovic.

At least that way the WBO and ibf mandatory can be combined.

First off the punched that dropped Hrgovic was a cuffing punch behind the head. Second boxing is scored by a round by round basis. So I think you should learn how boxing works. Hrgovic won more rounds. Also Hrgovic seemed distracted by his dads death and still won.

Joyce definitely relies more on his size then skills . Most heavy weights wouldn’t be as effective without some sort of size advantage and more skill would be needed ,you’d definitely see a huge change on here and some posters favorite fighters being more ridiculed . I don’t believe Wilder would ever come close to championship level without his reach and I don’t think Fury would get away with half the things he does physically without being the biggest guy in the division . He’d definitely get flattened by a Wilder if you take about 40 pounds off him .

But the fact is guys are bigger today and it’s very effective when you have both size and skills .

Lol the fact is the guys aren't bigger today since there literally 1000s and 1000s of boxers who were 6'5 or more since the 1970's. The guys are fatter today though. Also Tyson Fury isn't the biggest guy in the division in terms of height or weight. Wait you think Tyson Fury is 6'9 even though he is shorter than the 6'8 David Price right? Also being fat doesn't increase your punch resistance. Let me say this again. People like you need to stick to watching cartoons and playing video games. You clearly know little to nothing about boxing.

Hrgovic will lose the rematch against Zhang and he will lose against Joyce too. Hrgovic hasn't got the chin Joyce has but he also has no defense whatsoever.


The bombs Hrg took from Zhang likely left a permanent dent in his brain function and his reflexes and speed are going down now meaning his chin will also be worse.

Then don’t run. Don’t play keep away in order to run out the clock. Just stay in the pocket, fight and trade with him from the opening bell. It’s only way you could guarantee a knockout victory.

All I saw was the croat unravelling the whole fight. Given what he's said in this interview though I'd like to see the rematch. RIP to his pops.
