****ing hell what a useless fight. Allen does not deserve to fight any top 10 heavyweight he does not even belong in a ring with someone like Anderson or Joyce. Hrgovic should have fought Kabayel but instead Kabayel picked that Knyba guy and probably will face another low level fighter. Do these promoter learn at some point? If the heavyweight division is not moving while Usyk is fighting a Kickboxer it just makes everything even worse.

You wanna give Dave Allen a homecoming okay match him against Whyte in a rematch but even a washed Whyte is too much for him.

Hrgovic putting division on notice

“Falling just short of world level”. Hasn’t even won an area title and is 0-1-1 in Domestic title fights. Also lost to Frazer Clarke who himself is 0-2-1 in British title fights.

Its just sadistic at this point continually pretending this really simple guy is so relatable and sending him in to get his face punched in over & over while telling him he's great guy and just needs to try harder.

He can't even win a British title but for some reason he is constantly being matched in boringly uncompetitive fights vs world level or fringe contender types.

Probably because he is insanely tough. The guy has never been knocked down in his entire career and he's been in with some punchers like Luis Ortiz and Makhmadov

Allen is likable but that's a curse in his case. He's getting matches with guys who are messing with his well being just because he's a crowd favorite.

A bad beat down here.

I was ringside when he lost to Lenroy fucking Thomas Also when he got bashed in by a shot David Price.

I don't understand why a bum like him keeps getting these big fights Loses to Makmudov he's not very good himself then gets rewarded with a stadium fight vs Hrgovic?

Hrgovic told in Croatian TV that he desperately tried everything to convince Frank and George Warren to become a big fight against Fabio Wardley (as WBO No. 1 in the contender Rankings) or Agit Kabayel in Germany. Wardley was ready but Frank Warren didn’t allow the fight in the end because with Wardley vs DDD you can earn more money. What should a Top 10-Fighter from a small country like Croatia then do but to be happy to get a good payday and stay busy. It‘s sink or swim. It‘s all about money and a great pure Britain Heavyweight Clash is better to exploit. Hrgovic is not to blame for this choice of fight

[JakeTheBoxer]

What a garbage. He lost to Makhmudov, who is not even world level and now he will face top 10 opponent Hrgovic.


F.uck that British privilege.
