    Well had Usyk been counted out then it would have aged even better.

    Like I said, it aged very very well.

    I like Wardley and hope he doesn't go down the WBA made up pointless poundland belt route.

    I meant if Wardely wins, it gives Frank an all British 'blockbuster' for Ituama to become youngest champ? I like watching Wardley but he's very overrated on the back of one highlight reel KO...

    Wardley and Itauma both work with Ben Davison so the fight won't happen.

    When the belts get fragmented, it looks like Itauma and Justis Huni will get ordered for the vacant WBO World Title.

    I don't think Moses beats Wardley tbh. So it would be an awful plan if that was the end result.

    Wardley vs. Pulev is a one-sided crap fight in which Wardley will crush him within two or three rounds, Pulev has nothing to ask for, I'd rather see Wardley with someone younger and more dangerous...

    Did not know that. Doesn't fill me with hope for future success from either of them....

    It's Shane McGuigan - he was in Moses' corner last fight.

    If anyone ever talks about how big boxing used be and says "I wonder what happened?", instead of giving them the long drawn out story, just point them to the WBA.

    You're completely right. My mistake.

    Correction: Ben Davison is his trainer.

    I’m not too familiar with Wardley but he looks like he can fight, is he not deserving of his rank?

    He has 3 defences of the WBA continental title, probably justified in their point scoring system.
