Comments Thread For: Filip Hrgovic Vows to Smash 'Big Duck' Daniel Dubois and Then Take Out Anthony Joshua at Wembley

[BoxingUpdates]

Filip Hrgovic is far too professional to overlook the threat posed by Daniel Dubois, but it would be fair to say that the unbeaten Croatian is supremely confident of beating the Londoner when they meet on June 1. It has emerged that Hrgovic, 17-0 (14 KOs), got the better of a young Dubois during a couple of sparring sessions. Despite a promise from the 26-year-old Dubois to put his opponent to sleep in Saudi Arabia, Hrgovic - who has taken to calling his rival "Big Duck" after a clumsy cartoon character he used to watch as a child - hasn't seen anything to suggest things will be different when the pair swap punches for real. "He's just a little baby for me," Hrgovic told Queensberry. "He's not going to put me to sleep. I've fought much bigger punchers and they haven't put me to sleep. He's not going to put me to sleep; I'm going to destroy him. He's not mature enough for me.

Big talk let see by rights he is talking the truth about all of it

Hrgovic will smash Dubois, sure. But I think Joshua will not fight him next.

Hrgovic has looked so disinterested since the death of his father with all the back turning and the likes i'm not sure he's got the grit if things get tough for him, good thing he's got a solid chin...

[PBR Streetgang]

By Hrgovic's own metrics, he has no "big win" either.

[Tatabanya]

Big Duck vs Big Mouth. I'm curious to see how it ends.

No one knows who will Joshua fight next, even Joshua him self. Turki Will decide.

[James]

It would be ok if he fights Miller and Helenius to back it up. If he does so than no one can say that he is just talking trash.

But I believe that he is right. Only problem and real challenge for him is Joshua.

I'm disappointed with you flip. You said you best ddd in sparring. So I at least had you 1-0 up with a spar win in bag. But then ddd contested it and didn't agree?
So you lied to me! I'm not pleased

[K Man]

Agreed turki makes the decision. Hrogovic needs to build more on name recognition, fan base. A blow-out KO of DDD will bring more attention to the Croatian.
