It's a great fight for the fans but totally out of odds with Hrgovic's career path so far.
Besides, it's not too clear what Parker would get out of this either.
I'm all for giving the fans value for money but this matchup makes very little business sense.
Hrgovic needs to step up but Parker is a step too far.
How about Hrgovic v Chisora instead? Delboy already has one of the very best resumes at HW and this might be a chance for him to put one of the newcomers in their place.
If Filip could somehow convincingly get past HW boxing's toughest gatekeeper he might finally get some notice.
As for Parker, a Ruiz rematch might be a good option, seeing how Andy has also improved since their infamous first tussle.
It's also intriguing to see where Wilder goes from here.
Daniel Dubois too.
And whatever happened to Nathan Gorman?

Agree.
But there is no money with Hrgovic.
Chisora earned £5mil + for the Parker fight. No way does he get in the ring for less than £2mil.
Same with Parker. No one knows who Hrgovic is. Pretty much no one cares either.
He should be fighting 4-5, times a year, making his name. Maybe then people would want to see him.

Think Ortiz v Martin is an IBF eliminator, so winner
would get ordered v Hrgovic.

If we go of their pro careers thus far it's a victory for Parker. Good fight though.
