    In the wake of Charlo's visa cancellation, Stephen Fulton and Liam Wilson will now be fighting for the right to challenge recently crowned WBA 130lb champion Anthony Cacace for his title. I mean, the card won't feel the same now that a decorated undefeated world level fighter in Jermall Charlo is no longer available, but at the same time there were no belts or an eliminator on the line for Charlo and Mazoudier, so this WBA elimination fight is better than no world championship or eliminator fight from Charlo and Mazoudier.

    P.S this will in turn take Charlo-Mazoudier's place as the co-main event for the card

    Wilson doesn't deserve another crack at a world title. Albeit a lesser version.

    Hayato Tsutsumi still deserves his shot at Cacace's WBA belt.

    He should have won title vs Navarette. Ref went out of his way to rescue the Mexican fighter (who is one of boxing’s best). Not sure how he doesn’t deserve a shot?

    i like liam wilson but i gotta say man he landed a bus driver uppercut on navarrete while his hand was on the floor, that was a humongous punch that really hurt. however i thought the stoppage was a bit soft when vaquero finally got him

    This and dont understand why so many people, particularly the Australian media, either overlook or fail to mention it.
    Wilson should have either been deducted a point or have been disqualified.

    Fight should've been called off when Navarrete's team rigged the scales at the weigh in he has no right to complain about anything. Wilson still went in there and almost stopped the giant weight bully who was saved by the ref. That's the Aussie spirit lad bringing the thunder from down under.

    Agreed and funny you mention that scales and I recall No Limit and that flog, Peter Badel, had a big drama when Dylan Bigg's manager brought a set of scales to the weighin for Dylan's bout with Nikita.
    If only Liam's management team were smart to do the same.

    This. And Valdez flogged him. He got mauled in July 2021 too. He's had enough opportunities.
