    Inactivity, difficult style match-ups (Zhang/McKean), and the death of his dad have affected his performances. He's been developed poorly because MR has had trouble getting good opponents until Zhang. The mandatory spot is a curse because it encourages inactivity so the boxer doesn't lose his spot. Hrgovic needs to do what Tszyu did and keep defending his mandatory position. He needs another fight this year.

    One thing I dislike is how he turns his back on his opponent after the ref breaks up a clinch. It makes him appear disinterested or lethargic. He seems to have a decent punch output for a HW, so it may be a mental issue. He isn't laser focused.
    Did he turn his back to McKean? I wasn't paying attention too well.

      Really. I know something about boxing RJJ, and Hrgoivc beat Zhang on points ( the knock down called against him was BS ) and had not lost many rounds in any fight. And he has taken six underfed records in 16 for fights.

      You under rater Hrgoivc's will for battle. He will walk right through Usyk's punches , and he had the size, reach, punch output., accuracy and speed to cause him problems. And the power to hurt him when he lands.

      He is in his prime now. Usyk will be 37 soon, but he is without a doubt a top 3 heavyweight today.

      Oh by the way it is an open secret that Usky does not take a good body punch, which Hrgovic has. Remember that. I'm not saying Usyk has no chance. I am saying it highly likely he will box circlers around him. Only an idiot believes that.

      I will do a breakdown of the fight once it's an absolute go.​ In the man time, keep up the player hating.

          He is still better than Fury`s next opponent.

            Show me who will look great fighting two unbeaten southpaws back to back.

            The worst part of Hrgovic is his stamina, he has some serious issues here.
            Does Hrgovic lack punch output? Nope and you can check the punch out put in the 12 round Zhang fight were he finished strong , or his recent 12 round TKO where he carried his power well. Go ahead check on that and let me know. That is are two things that fighter with stamina issues do not do. He is not a clinch and rest and of guy. Fury does that. If he has stamina issues none of the above facts point to it.

            In a potential title world fight with Uysk, I guarantee you he will train harder.

              Yeah just not as ridiculously bad as the Zhang fight.

                Well, I am sure he would impress more fighting Chisora and Ngannou.

                  Does he? If Usyk -Fury doesn`t happen in december ( and probably won`t), Usyk -Hrgovic is next.

                    Man, he looked exhausted after 7th round. In Zhang fight also.

                    He is in bad condition, getting tired fighting 12 rounds.

                      The punch numbers do not suggest this! The speed and power of his punches late do not suggest that he lacks stamina. I'm not saying he does not take a round off. They all do. He is not a clinching type / resting type for sure. Maybe someone with elite stamina who can punch will get to him. Let me know who your thinking about.
