FEARED boxer Filip Hrgovic takes on British star Daniel Dubois this weekend.
But when he’s not busy preparing for crucial heavyweight fights, he enjoys a life of luxury with his wife Marinela Caja.
Who is Marinela Caja?
Hrgovic, who is ranked No1 by the IBF, is married to fellow Croatian beauty Marinela Caja.
Marinela is interested in sports and is a keen volleyball player, but keeps her personal life private.
She was in the ring after Hrgovic defeated Zhang Zhilei in the IBF heavyweight eliminator last year.
“My wife was biggest support for my camp against Zhang,” said Hrgovic after his close bout with the Chinese No1.
Marinela was with him during his “lonely” training camp in Houston and was able to give him “energy”.
Do the couple have children?
Marinela is currently pregnant with the couple’s first child, but her due date is unknown.
When did they get married?
The pair have been an item for 10 years, and tied the knot in June 2019 in their hometown of Sesvete, Croatia.
Who is Hrgovic fighting?
The undefeated Croatan will face Greenwich-born boxer Dubois in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on Saturday, June 1.
Dubois is coming off an impressive win against Jarrell Miller in December, becoming the first man to beat him and knock him out.
Many will remember that the Brit famously knocked down Oleksandr Usyk last year in Poland.
However, it was deemed a ‘low blow’, much to the dismay of Dubois’ promoter Frank Warren.
A win over ‘El Animal’ could see Dubois be given a world title shot, as Hrgovic is the current IBF mandatory challenger.
