      There's some great match ups here, but Hrgovic v De Mori isn't one of them. Hrgovic wants you to think he's a contender, but he's 31 and fighting a guy who's ranked 295th in the world by BoxRec

        Hrgovic the one HW on the card with the weakest opponent. Is anyone really surprised? He’s clinging on to that mandatory spot & ain’t risking it for nothing. Filip “I can’t put 6 people in a bingo hall” Hrgovic is kind of disappointing these days. Another Pulev. Just waiting out his mandatory spot without taking any risks like Joyce or Whyte. Agit Kabayel stepping up big time for the first time since beating Chisora. Will Fa show up in shape like he was for Parker or for Lucas Browne.

            Good strategy from De Mori -- Hrgovic will have to work
            hard to get past that beard.

                Would you risk title shoot that you get once in a life or maybee two times?
                And you are comming from small country that no one cares about? He is lucky that he got this far due to that fact. He need's to be smart and he is smart. He has guarantted title shot next year.

                  He's a novice pro really but he's never really received any sort of push. No real amateur experience. He started boxing at University. Graduated and took up boxing seriously at aged 25. Very difficult for him to get amateur fights due to how it works over here.

                  He won a boxxer tourney.

                  So he has to take the fight I guess but realistically he may actually have a genuine 0% chance.

                  If he does anything in the fight- what a dude to be honest.

                  He's a nice guy.

                    I get his position & the situation he is in. He already risked it against Zhang & McKean but De Mori? It is a little disappointing.
                    The IBF will make him full champion when the belt becomes vacant as he is the interim champion. If Fury wins they will strip him in 2 weeks like they did last time.
