Bob Arum came out in frustration over Taylor's opponent over the weekend and says that he wants to ban mandatory challengers There was a similar backlash after Barrera destroyed fana and ring put out an article saying they create horrible mismatches Then there's the bernard Hopkins and Larry Merchant argument after the hakkar fight over it Obviously in some cases mandatory Challengers are guys who would most certainly be avoided for as long as possible and in some cases result in guys getting deserved shots I guess I'm not sure if the problem is mandatories or just shitty rankings by organizations What's your take?
Ranked properly and mandatory defences are a must, anything else would lead to even worse corruption. It’s the governing bodies, they are bent as **** all of them that’s what’s caused issues
Catterall knows he’s getting a vacant title anyway, he’s angling for more step aside money right now.
