    Hopefully this means Jack/Stevenson gets made. Will Bivol fight for the regular title, or Ward's recently vacated super/undisputed title?

    Hmmmm.
    That's 1 duck to Bivol's resume already. I wonder how many he'll have towards the back end of his career, and haters of Bivol calling his resume **** because he fought nobody of class.

    Unless Jack has the Stevenson fight lined up this can be added to the official list of ducks

    You are very feel. With your feelings toward the WBA, very feel indeed.

    With Bivol having signed for Hearn he should have no problem getting big fights in the future

    Did Ortiz get big fights when he was promoted by Hearn? It is not a given for foreign fighters.

    He wasn't actually signed to Hearn though, Ortiz team asked Hearn to put him on 2 of their shows while they worked out a contract dispute.

    Bivol vs Barrera?

    And isn't Adonis facing Alvarez next? Unless Jack has been guaranteed a crack at the WBC belt it's hard to understand his reasoning for doing this.

    Has anyone heard why Jack vacated? I never took him as a ducker, and being that he was Floyd's only remaining champion I never thought Mayweather would let him vacate a precious ABC trinket.

    Im guessing Jack would have wanted the real WBA title on the line if he was to fight Bivol. Why take that fight for a mickey mouse title..

    That's why I said it's hard to understand his reasoning for doing it, what with him not being a ducker that is.

    Looks like TMT is protecting their investments with Davis and now Jack. Both will be carefully managed just as FMJ himself managed his career. They'll always have an eye on the landscape of things and when they see an opportunity for a title with weak belt holders they will strike and hold it to ransom in Vegas.
