Renowned American trainer Teddy Atlas commented on the upcoming fight between mandatory IBF heavyweight title challenger (over 90.7 kg) Filip Hrgović (17-0, 14 KOs) and Daniel Dubois (20-2, 19 KOs) on his podcast.
"This is a good fight. Solid match-up. The bout can be very competitive. Both guys have solid skills.
I prefer Hrgović, as he is still undefeated. He has quite good technique, but you can hit him. He showed courage in the fight against Zhang Zhilei, so I prefer him," said Atlas.
Filip Hrgović and Daniel Dubois will meet on June 1 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The fight will be part of the 5 vs 5 tournament between promotional companies Matchroom Boxing and Queensberry Promotions.
