    But the young man has beaten all placed in front of him.

      He got his ass whooped by Zhang, who is a fat ancient overrated bum himself, and got a gift. And all the rest of his opposition was horrible. Hrgovic has zero quality wins and he has zero business in a title fight of any kind.

        Honestly... I've never been impressed with him and never understood why people have considered him among the top 10.

        I must be missing something entirely or I must not know **** about boxing........

          Whichever boxer he was going to face had it not been Ngannou. I just posted in another thread, the Ngannou fight does not change anything in regards to AJ and his position in boxing. Ngannou fight was a money fight that did nothing in terms of his rankings in boxing. He just moves on now to the next one.

            And be real. Fury will never fight Joshua.

            If Joshua is that good as you guys say, he beats everybody, right?
            my point is if he is going to fight. It has to be someone with no KO power. He has a win against a non-boxer. I picked AJ before the fight for that very reason. Let's not think he's the second Coming of Joe Louis. Easy wins before a fight that can retire him for good.

              I'd like to see Bakole and Ruiz enter the Saudi heavy picture somewhere. Sanchez is not for me - he might very well excel against better competition but he's just not much fun is he?

              The heavies could be really fun with, ironically, the biggest fight between Fury and Usyk losing all kinds of lustre and maybe by the time it comes around interest? Fury murdered the hype for that one.

              I don't know if Wilder is fussed about getting back because if he shows the same application he showed vs Parker he's not gonna beat any of the top heavyweights and he'll likely get knocked out by most of them. Unless its huge money I'm sure he is in riding off into the sunset territory.

              Who would Wilder definitely beat with a name? Whyte? Maybe Miller. They're both still big guys who will put it on him

                I think all the best heavies should fight on saudian cards, including Ruiz, Bakole, sanchez.

                  Bakole/Takam was on the Fury/Ngannou undercard. already been on a Saudi card. I wish Bakole was more active.

                    Fil, or if it's a tread water fight then Wilder or Parker.

                    Honestly, only dudes I really want to see him against are Parker and Fil, I only throw in Wilder because I get it, that's a whenever you want to you got some easy money there kinda fight.

                      It's not like he's got anyone else on his dance card and needs to bank a few decent rounds by the time a title shot becomes available.

                      Sanchez will give him that with interest! Follow Parker's lead and clear out the division.

                      Take Hrgovic to school, expose Sanchez, rematch Parker, end Wilders career whatever, just don't go back to crushing cans and putting on exhibitions.
                      If he gets through those you're mentioning. He needs to do it first. He might not be able to expose Sanchez, who knows.
