    Except... well... he didn't when he had his chance.

      Last time Zhang fought Hrgovic while hrgovic was mourning his father's death and clearly didn't want to be in the ring, Zhang ended the fight gasping for air, literally running away with his back turned and leaning over the ropes gulping in air looking like his heart valve was about to go.

      Don't bank on an even older Zhang doing any better in a rematch.

        Hrgovic has one legit win on his resume. It is a win that looks fantastic now, but one win. Both his fights this year were sparring matches against scrubs to stay motivated in training and to keep his pole position in the IBF. If the IBF strips the winner of the Usyk-Fury showdown because of the rematch, Hrgovic will not be a legit title holder regardless.

        I think he is good, but he needs some more top 10 fights. Hell- Rematch Zhang. A ton of people call that fight a gift, go prove them wrong while you are waiting.

          Anderson should be next up for Zhang looking at the WBO rankings. Should be calling for that fight right now

            He dropped Hrgovic in the first fight. The Croate clearly wants no part of a rematch.

              What exactly has Hrgovic done so far in his career to inspire such confidence he wins at the top level? Emporer Zhang just smashed The Juggernaut twice. The Juggernaut smashed Dubois. Dubois just ended Big Belly Miller. You do the math.

                Jared is good. But Frank sanchez seems ahead of him in hierarchy

                  If you were a betting man, this is exactly how you lose money.

                      What I don't understand about Anderson and his team he was quite active earlier this year but has not fought in 4 months and he has no fight scheduled. His doing what every other top 10 fighters are doing by having periods of inactivity. His resume is not bad for his first 15 fights but he really needs to keep active and up his opponents now. His not quite ready for Hrgovic just yet.
