    Yes, this is a bad, last minute opponent. But lets give him some context with his top 5 most notable wins.

    Victor Emilio Ramirez
    Former WBO cruiser champion and IBF interim. Currently the WBCs 18th ranked Bridger

    Senad Gashi
    Respectable veteran who was coming off his career best win against Fury opponent Tom Schwarz (I was actually cheering for Gashi in this one).Currently WBC 12th ranked Bridger,

    Lukas Fasjk
    Currently stands at 11-1, with Kadiru being his only defeat

    Djujar El Scheich
    22-0 at the time, currently stands at 23-3. Managed a draw against ErkenTeper and a win over Danny Williams (its a name for context).

    Roman Gorst
    10-3 with a notable win over Boris Estenfelder, who would probably be #6 on the list of Kadiru's victories.

    So there you have it, the Kadiru murderer's row.

    I agree. Let's not try to justify it, because frankly it's a bit embarrassing.

    Sure hope nobody has to pay to see it.

    Ehhh.... as far as the Gashi win, I give him zero credit for it, because it was undeserved!

    Round 2 Kadiru 10-9
    Round 3 Gashi 10-9
    Round 4 Gashi 10-9
    Round 5 Kadiru 10-9
    Round 6 Gashi 10-9
    Round 7 Kadiru 10-9
    Round 8 Gashi 10-9
    Round 9 Gashi 10-9
    Round 10 Gashi 10-9

    97-93 Gashi

    Let’s not. Suslenkov who’s ranked by WBA is fighting on the undercard, so the last minute excuse doesn’t hold up.

    Ramirez was a pretty underrated Cruiserweight, back in his day... but he was washed up by the time he faced Kadiru, and nearly 40.

    No but it IS his fault he picked a nobody OUTSIDE the top 50.

    As it turns out, Kadiru actually IS in the new WBA rankings.

    It was decided back in May that he would enter the WBA heavyweight rankings, when he won the WBA continental heavyweight title with his win over Gashi.

    You are aware that Ramirez has been absolutely shot to bits for years right? There's way too much reaching and cope in this thread man. Kadiru has only faced bums and the only decent (domestic level really) opponent he's faced he was given a gift. He's **** and it's a **** fight. Period end of discussion.

    Peter Kadiru has a glass jaw to top it all off.

    You are in your own world at this point. No one has said this is good resume, and in fact, I said in the first sentence that it isn't. Seriously, man, you are taking yourself and your own outrage far too seriously. The fight goes on whether you like it or not, I can talk about it all I like, and no, I never said this was a good opponent--I said it wasn't.

    Well there is no need to justify it...it's a last minute replacement. This is essentially a runout. It's not even clear the title will be on the line.
