    Don't kill yourself when Zurdo UD's Benavidez. You're straight up delusional with your fanboying at this point.

    Personally I think going undisputed while not as lucrative as going to heavyweight is the best option as Jai is a bit too small for the big division even though he’s thicker than most CW.

    I realize that, I just can't remember a fighter who got stripped wear the belt in the ring after even though they do own it like you said

    Opetaia softening up for a moment there after seeing his supporters

    Max Kellerman is insufferable. Can we start a fund to pay him to never commentate again? I'll drop a mortgage payment on that.

    It's BS that he has tried everything for a unification and he's been avoided.

    Yeah. I do think he could have taken him out if he went for it just a little more, but Glantons chin is unreal.

    I wish guys like Kellerman wouldn't constantly ask champions when they are going to move up.

    He'd have beaten Witherspoon, obviously. Past that? Not a single W on that record. Chisora would batter him to death. Everyone else KOs him with little to no issues. Picturing Fury laying his blubbery body all over Jai and them walloping him is pretty funny.

    That being said, I'll find it extremely funny if the IBF keeps Jai stripped but he keeps wearing the belt regardless

    That Zuffa belt leaves a lot to be desired.

    Terrible design. Poor color choices. Black and silver.

    Apochi, Billam-Smith, Asbarov and Egorov all have solid power. He's never even been close to rocked, with a face first style. That means he has a great chin.

    Zuffa Stooge Kellerman didn't like hearing that Jai is still after the other belts.
