He gassed out in both of his last two fights against Joe Joyce and Daniel Dubois. That problem will still be there on August 16th.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a fight where Hrgovic, 33, has to prove that he can beat this fringe-level heavyweight. This is someone that the top heavyweights should be able to defeat without any problems. On paper, Adeleye lacks the skills and the pedigree needed to compete against Hrgovic unless he\u2019s lost something from his game after his knockout loss to Daniel Dubois in June 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Hrgovic-Adeleye are fighting on the undercard of Moses Itauma vs. Dillian Whyte on August 16th. The event will be shown live on DAZN PPV for $49.99. This fight is one of the more interesting ones on the card, and could prove to be more exciting than the main event.<\/p>\n<p>David Adeleye: Stepping Up Again<\/p>\n<p>Adeleye (14-1, 13 KOs) is being thrown in with the 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Hrgovic (18-1, 14 KOs) in a big step up for the London native. He already failed once, getting knocked out by Fabio Wardley in 2023,<\/p>\n<p>Hrgovic: \u201cEvery Fight Is A Risk\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think I\u2019m much more experienced as a professional and an amateur. I think I\u2019m on a different level, but every fight is a risk,\u201d said Filip Hrgovic to the Ring Magazine <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=DvKwvDeNB1A&amp;ab_channel=RingMagazine\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">channel<\/a>, talking about his fight against David Adeleye on August 16th.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a bad sign that Hrgovic was forced to go the 10-round distance to defeat the 39-year-old Joe Joyce last April. That should have been an easy win for Hrgovic, but his power wasn\u2019t good enough to dent Joyce\u2019s chin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can\u2019t underestimate anyone. I\u2019m training really hard, and I\u2019m confident that I\u2019ll beat him. I screwed up against Dubois,\u201d said Filip. \u201cI looked really bad. I think I\u2019m one of the best fighters out there, and I have put all my life into boxing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The last thing Hrgovic can afford is to overlook Adeleye because this guy can punch. He\u2019s not great technically, but he has power that could be a problem for Hrgovic if the fight goes into the second half.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTwenty years in boxing, and I, of course, have a big desire to be a world champion. After that loss, this is my second attempt. Hopefully, I\u2019ll do it this time. I\u2019ll do everything that I can,\u201d said Hrgovic.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"YouTube video\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" nopin=\"nopin\" class=\"perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/hqdefault.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.boxingnews24.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Boxing News 24<\/a> \u00bb Filip Hrgovic\u2019s Redemption: Can He Overcome Stamina Issues Against David Adeleye?<\/p>\n<p>Last Updated on 07\/31\/2025 \t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Filip Hrgovic says his amateur and professional experience will prove to be too much for British heavyweight David&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":37187,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,21785,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-37186","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-boxing","8":"tag-boxing","9":"tag-boxingnleigh-dawneynqueensberry-promotionsnheavy-impactnjoe-joycenfilip-hrgovicnfight-night","10":"tag-sports","11":"tag-uk","12":"tag-united-kingdom","13":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37186","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37186"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37186\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/37187"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37186"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=37186"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=37186"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
