    I will explain
    • #1 spot was mandated in final eliminator between Hrgovic and Zhang, as per IBF order
    • #2 spot was mandated in eliminator between Murat Gassiev and Otto Wallin, as per IBF order
    • Hearn wanted #2 spot, made a big bounty offer to Wallin to give up his place, MONEY TALKS!! But IBF stood tall, with spine this time and said......No way, Hose, Mr. Hearn your fighter is gonna be ordered an eliminator to EARN his #2 place
    • This aint WBA Mr. Hearn
    IBF has become the most prestigous belt in my eyes

    Why should Joshua be given the freedom to do as he pleases?

    no there is a thread where you and AJ "apologists" cry how IBF is hard for not following their rules and not just straight up giving him a belt

    The thread is exactly for the same thing. And where the f**** you ever read that someone claimed that AJ should be given the title for free?
    You are an obvious alt account, cause his old was banned for obvious reason.

    And why shouldn't he ?
    Better say why should Hrgobic even be at number 1, when they clearly robbed Zhang + he fought 2 complete nobodies.
    Hrgovic resume is based all on a blatant robbery, simple as that.

    No, you are accusing me of having another account or connecting me to some banned user to get me banned, because I speak what you dont want to hear.

    Coward, manipulant and disgrace.

    I know it's hard to bear when judges "award" a decision to someone from a small country, and when it happens to someone from a larger country, it is forgotten and forgiven. If Hrgovic isn't that good then Joshua shouldn't be afraid to fight even for a small amount.

    I don’t see the issue. It will still be AJ vs hrgovic for the vacant title

    UI hate this whole 3x champion stuff - it just means youve lost your belt a lot. I prefer multi weight World champion/

    Let’s be honest here,when Hearns lobbying/scheming comes to nothing it’s great,but it won’t affect Joshua anyway tbh he’s still relevant and the big draw. Joshua will fight for the IBF belt this year if it does become available of that I have no doubt .

    Joshua will still fight for the IBF belt this year,once there is a new IBF holder Hearn will just throw the money at him like he did with Charles Martin .

    If AJ had signed to face Hrgovic for this next fight he might well have received that number 2 spot and they could have made it for an interim title.
