Comments Thread For: Filip Hrgovic To Face Mark De Mori On Joshua-Wallin Undercard December 23 In Riyadh

[Goatintheboat]

He is not interim champ.

You're right, my mistake.

[Phase III]

What a ***** joke. If they were just giving him a 99.9% win, why bother? Something’s smells!

My predictions on the Heavies

1. Wilder-Parker is very competitive and could go either way. I think Wilder is slightly favorite but I won't be surprised if Parker wins, particularly after Wilder's inactivity.
2. Joshua-Wallin is a straight-forward easy win for Joshua. Wallin is way, way overrated, and has no power. Joshua dispatches him quicker than Helenius.
3. Dubois-Miller is exciting but I think Miller's tactics and pressure may just be too much for Dubois who may crack under the pressure. I slightly favor Miller in this slightly.
4. Hrgovic - Mori is a joke of a fight and the easiest fight on the card.

Overall, Dubois-Miller may be the most exciting fight on the card.

My picks.

Parker UD Wilder, Wilder down and blames the Saudi water for fading
Joshua UD Walin. Close on the cards. Like 8-4 or 7-5.
Miller SD Dubois. Hard to call due to Miller's weight and drug problems.
Hrgovic via KO / TKO Mori early inside of four rounds.

Paker passed on fighting Hrgovic before.

If Joshua wins it wouild be gresat if winner of Usyk/Fury accepts to fight Hrgovic then Joshua would have to fight Wilder. He would have no exucees not to fight him.

AJ is a shell. His confidence is shot and Eddie just wants to squeeze one or two more huge checks out of him before he gets chinned again. Wallin likely won't stop AJ, but he will badly outbox him. Eddie will have the judges in his pocket to rob Wallin. I don't rate Hrgovic. I saw enough against Zhang to know that he's barely on the outer fringes of Top 10.

Who is counting? Hrgovic will fight for the IBF world title. I'd rather him face someone better, but it is time. Here are the current IBF ratings.

Who will take this title fight?

1	Filip Hrgovic	Croatia (HRV)
2	Otto Wallin	Sweden (SWE)
3	Anthony Joshua	England (ENG)
4	Joseph Parker	Australia (AUS)
5	Jared Anderson	United States (USA)
6	Frank Sanchez	Cuba (CUB)
7	Arslanbek Makhmudov	Russian Federation (RUS)
8	Daniel Dubois	England (ENG)
9	Agit Kabayel	Germany (GER)
10	Fabio Wardley	United Kingdom (GBR)
11	Martin Bakole	Congo
12	Efe Ajagba	Nigeria (NGA)
13	Murat Gassiev	Armenia (ARM)
14	Justis Huni	Australia (AUS)
15	Dillian Whyte	United Kingdom (GBR

Hrgovic fights Wallin -Joshua winner next year, it is pretty much obviuos.

They want easier fights if possible with Wilder or that MMA guy, a 0-1 boxer who goes jobbed vs. Fury.

Why do you think Joshua fights Wallin next?

because Wallin is N.2 contender by IBF. he just won this position beating Gassiev.

And bcs Hearn and Sauerland allready agreed fight

[Phase III]

Why on earth would the powers that be take what is a real good card and put this garbage fight on? This is a real joke. Somebody is paying someone off to put this disgraceful fight on what is otherwise an excellent card.

[Phase III]

All eyes will be on Dubois. I hope he doesn’t quit again.
