This is in accordance with WBA rules whereby the WBA Super Champion can be mandated to defend belt against the WBA Regular Champion. This is in line with WBA’s desire to consolidate their belts.
CAN be mandated. Not will be mandated. they will take their sanction fees from Gervontas in house weak defences until they ready to cash him out for the big bucks. Meanwhile guy is fighting for Mickey Mouse belts
I think both Haney and Tank are maturing. They fought guys that were very disrespectful, yet maintained their cool and came out with the win. Both are young and have time to become more professional. Time will tell. Their talent cannot be denied. I will enjoy watching their careers.
Must be skin colour I see it in select posters on who they despise I'm a Catholic white man from the North of Ireland, I know too well about hate
WBA Consolidating belts? A protected fighter who is a semi draw letting an abc organization call the shots? Tank fighting a live body? I'll bet my whole lifesaving and my salary for the next 2 years on this fight not happening.
Haney is bound by the rematch clause and I believe that is the only obstacle stopping the Haney vs Tank fight. Haney has always wanted to fight the best and consolidate the belts. Tank has more say so in who he fights now and I think that he would accept a challenge from Haney. As for fighting Rolly, Tank had to take that fight, Rolly put the spotlight on himself and that fight so bright that the public demanded it and were willing to pay big money to watch it. It was a no brainer. Now that it's over with, Tank can get back to solidifying his legacy.
