Frank Warren has paid tribute to Joe Joyce and Filip Hrgovic ahead of their heavyweight bout this weekend, and expects their fight to be a "shoot-out"Â Â live on DAZN .
The two former Olympians meet at Heavy Impact on Saturday , the first card in a deal between the streamer and Queensberry Promotions, at Manchester's Co-op Live.
Joyce, looking to rebuild after three losses in his last four fights, was originally slated for a domestic clash with Dillian Whyte before the latter had to withdraw.
That allowed Hrgovic, who was the Briton's choice, to step in and Warren feted both men at a press event on Thursday as they edge closer to their major clash.
"He jumped at it," he told a media group. "He got the call and he said he wanted it. I take my hat off to Joe, because that's the one he wanted. They're different styles.
"I think it could be a tougher fight. I look at Filip's last fight against Daniel Dubois. Those first three rounds, he was throwing and finding him with those right handers.
You know he's going to come forward throwing those punches, throwing those bombs, and you know Joe walks forward, that's the way he fights.
"You're going to get a shoot-out. I don't think either of them wants to go ten rounds. They'll be looking to knock each other out."
