What is at stake?
Allen has a dream opportunity to delight his hometown fans in Doncaster -- but it comes against a tough opponent.
Croatia's Hrgovic is an Olympic medallist who has campaigned near the sharp end of the heavyweight division for his pro career. His sole loss came against Daniel Dubois two years ago. Since then, he rebounded by beating British duo Joe Joyce and David Adeleye.
Allen has lost eight of his 35 fights in a rollercoaster tenure in the British heavyweight scene. Last year, he was beaten by Arslanbek Makhmudov, who went on to fight Tyson Fury. But it has never dented Allen's popularity.
"May 16 will be a magical experience for Dave Allen," promoter Frank Warren said.
"He is taking on a world-class operator in Filip Hrgovic, but he gets to do it on his own doorstep at Doncaster Rovers.
"This will be a huge occasion for the city of Doncaster and for the fans who have backed Dave throughout his career.
"Filip has got into a habit of beating British heavyweights, so this really is a 'Dave vs Goliath' battle."
"This is everything I've wanted," Allen added.
"A big fight, at home, in front of my own people. Nights like this don't come around often, and I'm not letting it pass me by. I know how tough Hrgovic is, but I believe in myself and I'll be ready to give Doncaster a night to remember."
