I really couldn't care less who Bika fights at this point. He just needs to fight.

To be honest Stiff i ain't seen anything of this Brinkley since he lost over 8 rounds to Robin Reid about two years ago in a Yank v Brit contender type card . He has been winning since then according to Boxrec.com but his comp ain't been at Bika's level . easy night for the fouling scorpion imo .

The IBO can enforce the champion to face his mandatory but rarely do. They prefer to have fights like #68 v #45 for a vacant title or the champion to face a guy moving up from two divisions below...those type of fights

Brinkley is coming off a war against once hyped Curtis Stevens. Brinkley won in what some are calling a foty candidate. Stevens tried to walk through him but Brinkley prevailed.

Not an easy fight for Sakio, especially since he has been so inactive.

The IBO had a decent reputation and format but recent turns of events have placed that particular ORG below that of European Championship Standard and on par with the Commonwealth title . IMO .

Their format is rubbish mate. They give belts away.

Hey Jet, old Phil 'Clown Shoes' Austin would love reading your comments - NOT!

Are you going to the Grange fights at La Montage on Thursday night?
