Yoka receives an offer to fight Hrgovic

Tony Yoka (11-0, 9 KOs) is another boxer who was offered an IBF heavyweight qualifier with Filip Hrgovic (14-0, 12 KOs). Previously Luis Ortiz and Joseph Parker did not want to take this opportunity.

The 29-year-old Frenchman last boxed in September. In mid-January, Yoka was scheduled to fight Martin Bacole in Paris, but the event was postponed due to new restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic in France.

Last year, Hrgovic had two fights, and the last time he entered the ring in December. The heavyweight champion of the International Boxing Federation is Alexander Usyk, who will have to give Anthony Joshua a rematch in the spring.
