Confirmed for the undercard of Joshua vs Parker, poor defence in my opinion. i know its a mandatory but its gonna be so one sided.
Looks like Burnett had simultaneous mandatories called for both IBF and WBA and has ended up having to vacate the IBF. Very disappointing, champions who look to unify should get some leeway to work though mandatories rather than have to choose which belt to drop. Almost impossible these days for a fighter to obtain and keep undisputed status, the avarice of the governing bodies to get their full sanctioning fee will be ensure that remains the case.
I guess it will be fun to see Price laid out like a fitted carpet but it could be a unfortunate fight if he gets hurt bad.
