I think Hrgovic won't ever be an easy night's work for anyone, but, at the same time, he seems to switch off and on several times in 12 round fights; and I wonder if that will prevent him from beating the best few guys in the division.

I'm looking forward to the Uysk vs Dubois fight. I can see multiple outcomes, which makes it interesting for me. You can never rule out someone with Dubois's punching power and he has ticker. To climb off the floor three times with a knee injury shows that.

I just wonder if Uysk will be too quick for him, though.

It sounds like it will be Uysk vs Hrgovic next:

hergovic showed the world how good he really is on saturday against what was basically a sparring journeyman with very little to offer other than being a southpaw .

Not very ..

Usyk will literally toy with him if they ever fight .

I agree. Usyk's straight shots will get inside Hrg's loopers. He's got a decent long straight right but likes to take rests during a fight. He wouldn't handle the pace Usyk sets.

Hrg will be blowing out of his arse midway against Usyk, he just knows how to get his opponents exhausted

Whilst I’m confident Usyk will beat Hrgovic I think it should be remembered that he’s actively going out & choosing to face huge southpaws in preparation for Usyk.

No one else in the division bar Joyce has that same mentality to go & take on opponents with a tough style for them.

He’ll be going in with far better prep than Joshua did & Dubois has.

Why is he breathing so heavily?

Altitude

Anyone else intrigued to see how Prince Naseem Hamed's son looks on the undercard?

I wonder if he will box in a similar way to his father or will be more orthodox?

I hope it goes well for him.

At some point soon surely Usyk’s age catches up with him and he becomes less able to move round a stationary target for 12 rounds

Yeah, of course that'll happen. As soon as there are any signs of that, Fury will be back on social media spouting out hollow challenges again...

I just cant see how Dubois has a chance in this although my recent predictions have been nuts.

I’m with you ….

Agreed, unless I'm massively underrating his power which I think is overrated.

"Uysk is a little old man"

speaking of little...

He's been Warrened.

Dubois is going to be dominated in this fight. Usyk landing more and more until the brutal stoppage. DDD has no business in the ring with the best heavyweight in the world,.

Well if Joyce can out box him...

I genuinely worry for DDD's health. Usyk is about nine levels higher.

God I find his voice irritating. He seems a bizarre choice for press conferences.

He made Joyce look like Larry Holmes. Joyce couldn't miss him with the jab.

Yep. Fun night for Usyk.

I'm 100% serious. DDD took a real beating off Joyce and I don't know if you've noticed, but those fights aren't good for your health. Another beating is incoming and it won't be good for Daniel's health.

He didn’t take a beating off Joyce. He got peppered with jabs, which busted his eye, but Joyce wasn’t teeing off with power shots or working him over.
