    Seriously though. How many ranked opponents has Hrgovic faced? If you actually look at his resume, I don't really see why people have a problem with saying that he's a hypejob. Fami has been pretty consistent thinking that Hrgovic was overrated from what I've seen. So you can't really pin other people thinking he was overrated on fami. And when his next best wins are guys like 199th ranked Radonjik or Demsey McKean, etc... He was extremely lucky to get the win over Zhang, and I've been on record numerous times saying he didn't deserve it. I happen to agree that it ought to be beyond dispute that Nery and Doheny have both achieved more in their careers. And don't give me any of the crap about weak divisions. Heavyweight is so weak that 45 year old Luis Ortiz with all his losses is still ranked in the top 10 by some of the alphabet organizations.

          Doheny used to be good.
          Hrgovic was never good.

          Easy call.

              No question - two absolutely shocking KO victories.

              Miller did better than Hrgovic or Joshua - that speaks to hard Dubois worked in camp for these last two fights.

              Fighter of the year.

                I think so. He was an underdog in 3 fights, and he won them all by KOs in dominating fashion. It really doesn't get better than that... even though Miller was at the end of 2023 :/

                    If Usyk beats Fury again, than it is him.

                    Bivol - Beterbiev winner will also be in conversation, if it will be a clear win.

                      Naoya Inoue has already stopped Luis Nery and TJ Doheny this year and he's supposed to fight either Goodman or Akhmadaliev in December in Tokyo.

                      Jesse Rodriguez stopped Juan Francisco Estrada for a lineal championship and he's fighting Pedro Guevara next.
                      Those lower weightclasses mean nothing there is just a few pounds between them. They created those small weight classes to sell fights as title fights. It’s business for the most part. You have to take that into consideration when weighin in on the lower divs.
