4 seems about right. His performances generally arent very eye catching but actually beating him will take some work. Hes got the size, hes pretty skilled and hes in his prime. It'll be AJs best opponent since Usyk.

Rate Hrgovic's chances against Joshua from 1 to 10

I think he has a good chance. About 6. He is a big strong guy with a very solid chin and staamina. Maybe he would be the hardest hitter Joshua ever fought.

2 out of 10
Hrgovic is a 32 year old man with not a SINGLE good win on his record
He's totally unproven and the fact his team have ducked all challenges for his 8 years as a pro tells me all I need to know. He's only like 2 years younger than AJ which is shocking when you compare achievements.
I do not rate this Hrgovic guy, AJ destroys him and gets very little credit for it due to Hrgovic atrocious resume he will be easily labelled a hype job.

I would say 3, since AJ is really fighting well lately. It's funny that it looks to me that Hrgovic would actually have more chances against Usyk. He likes smaller opponents and know how to keep them at distance and punish them when they try to come closer. Even big fighters like Mckean and Zhang were of his height but he had significantly bigger reach. AJ is of the same height AND reach. That will certainly create a need for adjustments in his style.
And as I said, AJ is in a really great shape lately, so it will be necessary to beat the best version of AJ. I bet that he hopes to fight Usyk, due to his style and size (please note I am not saying that AJ is better then Usyk, just that Usyk would fit him better... and as we all know, styles make fights).

Hrgovic chances are because of:- size
- strength
- good chin
- slow
- one-dimensional
- poor head movement

He can in-fight or out fight. He has a good jab, hook and right hand. A effective uppercut and body punching too. One Dimensional??

Okay but he is not slow handed. His hand speed is on the + side, as is his accuracy.

Yes, he is one-dimensional - back and forth like Joyce. I liked Hrgovic until his last fight where he showed an extremely dirty game. He better pull himself together and improve, he still has the chance.
