    Now before people think I'm bitching about irrelevant things hear me out...

    I knw I should be proud of my compatriots holding on and battling for 1 of the "big 4" world titles and I was in the beginning becos I thought it would open doors for our fighters to get international exposure and fight "named" fighters in the division.

    Sadly its all turned into a farce imo, recycled fights between Fana, Baloyi and Klaasen is essentially what is being done and it is tainting the prestige of saying "I'm a WORLD champ!" Sometimes I hope that (like Klassen did against Guerrero) one of them would step up and fight the nig names in the division whether they have to travel abroad to do so...its all beginning to seem like a circus to me!!!!

    I'm surprised Fana hasn't fought Klassen yet.

    Oh yeah he did. I meant since Fana beat Baloyi it's the next logical fight to keep the title in SA.

    It's like the John Ruiz crap with the WBA heavyweight title, pretty sure he was instilled as Mandatory Challenger Emeritus

    Good for you man. I agree with you. Sometimes it sucks to expect a lot out of your fighters. When they got a good thing going, they want to keep it going, and often miss the bigger picture.
