    Bakole/Hunter good fights. Kuzmin/Zhang too, but I'd more interested in the former. Hunter may actually be a handful for Hrgovic; the others would not be pushovers either, I think.

    Pulev would be good too in a little while, but I doubt he's gonna risk Hrgovic - who's a big boy and appears to pack a respectable wallop - after getting beat up by AJ unless they could pay him serious money.

      Hrgovic is a top 10 guy , the people who manage Bakole type guys aren’t dumb they will price themselves out or run like Hunter . The next big fight he has will most likely have to be forced by the sanctioned bodies as an elimination bout .

        Hrgovic is a big scary guy. He makes Fury look like the Michilin man. He has to learn how to crack these defensive codes, but he has the tools.

          Maybe. He has physical talents but he also seemed a little stiff and uncoordinated. That robotic movement doesn't help his defense.

          I want to see how he looks when someone is throwing back some heat his way.

            Pointless fight for Hunter. He's past the point of fighting prospects. He had a draw (won imo) with the guy who just beat Whyte. He's not doing Eddie anymore favors without a big payday.

                Agreed, all the hype Hrgovic gets and his best win is Eric Molina ...

                  He only has twelve fights, but that's where he can improve. He can get more fluid, that's easier than trying to grow a punch. I think a pressure fighter will run into Hrgovic's power, its the slippery ones he has to study.

                    Stiverne, chisora or Martin should be first if following that logic. They wouldn’t be a step up from Hunter that’s for sure. Bakole then Hunter would make sense but I understand Hunter didn’t even respond when offered a fight previously by matchroom so probably sounds doubtful he would be involved

                      Hrgovic is next David Price. He will get stopped with first good fighter he faces. he is stiff and predictable.
