This has been confirmed. EBU orders this fight. Guess it won't happen.

A great matchup. Hopefully it happens. It looks quite possible after Ajagba-Demirezen.

Hrgovic v Martin Bakole is Chief Support for Usyk v Del Boy if that’s made - that was before this was called.

How often does Eddie Hearn and Fṙḁṅk Wḁṙṙḛṅ work with each other?

That’s precisely how likely this bout will eventually become a reality! :lol:

Better than the Dubois fight IMO.

Ya I watched it again and I agree. After the first 2 rounds Hrg looked tired and Joyce ha the 'boss' look, but despite that Hrg was still landing a lot of good shots. The WSB gloves are different than pro gloves and make it harder to hurt opponents.

To me Hrg actually looks slower and stiffer now

He's bulked up a bit and fell in love with his perceived power.

So either way, Joyce should be facing Dubois or Hrgovic next surely?

Not sure who Dubois faces if he's left out but think Hrgovic would face Takam or Camkiran who would be next in the EBU rankings.

So I imagine we're guaranteed atleast one decent fight there one way or another.

So I’m guessing no one is shocked about Joe Joyce preferring to face fellow Fṙḁṅk Wḁṙṙḛṅ stablemate, Daniel Dubois, rather than the Eddie Hearn promoted Filip Hrgovic? :lol:

Boxing politics is the worst thing about the sport! :roll:

Joyce doesn’t even pretend he’s worked on head-movement.

Joe Joyce agrees Battle of Britain fight with Daniel Dubois at the O2 Arena in April after receiving a considerably higher offer than European title shot against Filip Hrgovic

Fair enough, I agree it's a good match-up, but I don't feel there was ever a realistic chance of Joe Joyce facing Filip Hrgovic anytime soon (due to their promotional ties).
