Filip Hrgovic is the mandatory challenger for the IBF heavyweight title and is adamant that he must box the Oleksandr Usyk vs Daniel Dubois winner next; Hrgovic says that its too late for Tyson Fury who had all the time in the world to make the undisputed fight with Usyk earlier
Usyk has questioned Tyson Fury's decision to fight former UFC champion Francis Ngannou
He is expecting Usyk to be victorious this weekend though he doesn't rule out Dubois' chances entirely. Usyk vs Dubois on August 26 will be the first heavyweight world title fight of the year so far. Fury won't box until October 28 and that will be against former UFC champion Francis Ngannou, who will be having his first boxing contest, without Fury's world title on the line.
"It should be stopped. That's my opinion," he added."From what I can see Fury's obviously not interested in boxing anymore. He can't stop the whole division. Sanctioning bodies need to do their job. They need to force mandatories and that's it."
