So Whyte vs Hrgovic then?Hearn and Sauerland both in recent interviews said offers were sent to Hunter with no response. They're on youtube.
Two sides to every story and I like Hunter but for whatever reason, he doesn't seem to want to fight Hrgovic. I really want to see that fight.
Hunter seems strangely overlooked by Americans.Comment

Whyte can be a twat waffle when he opens his mouth but there is no doubt that he has taken risks when he didn't have to. Look at Pulev. There is a guy that twice held a mandatory position for 2 years & never risked his ranking. Not saying Pulev was avoiding anyone but his team refused to take on any live bodies waiting for his title shot. Whyte got the WBC #1 ranking after beating Robert Helenius for the WBC silver title. He fought Browne (who I always thought was extremely overrated), Parker, Chisora, Rivas, Wach & Povetkin waiting for his WBC title shot. He doesn't get enough credit for taking risky fights. It bit him in the a5s but he is still the #5 HW in the world in my eyes.
Agreed not the biggest fan of Whyte but deserves more credit and has beaten more current top 20 opponents than Wilder + Fury + Ruiz put togetherComment

Two can play that game: https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/686975
Hrgovic fought that dude in 2020, before he decided to "challenge" himself with his former sparring partner Rydell Booker. When I look at the Croatian's resume I don't see anyone near the level of a Bakole, Kuzmin, Usyk or Povetkin. I don't see a single fighter who was anything other than a punching bag brought in to provide a guaranteed "W". Care to dispute that?
I'm not saying Hrgovic is a bad fighter but he hasn't fought anyone to tell me he's any good either.Comment
