    I'm amazed a judge actually gave it to Gassiev
    He lost that fight very clearly

    Miller is of a dying breed: A thrash talking American HW who brings relatively action packed fights. US HW scene failed miserably with Anderson and Torrez, Wilder is semi-retired so they’ll try to milk Big Baby for as long as they can.

    I'd like to see Miller fight Hrgovic just for the contrast in how they wear their shorts. Hrgovic's seem so low you worry you might see a Plumber's Crack.... Big Baby wears his Lou Costello-style -- up to his man-boobs. ;)

    That would probably end up being a very fun brawl. Hrgovic by close UD or late stoppage.

    What's he done to earn a title shot?

    And is beating Pero something that deserves a title shot?

    Because I sure as **** don't think it is.

    Besides, didn't @like a boss put something up confirming it wasn't an eliminator?

    it was an eliminator for apparently the number two spot. Also, I’m not saying he deserves a title shot, but since the WBA makes the rules, they can approve a title shot and we can’t do anything about it.

    Miller deserves a title shot. Good call. He might actually win. If this fight was a year or two back Miller probably wins.

    With Itauma being number 1 that's a fight I'd like to see because Miller gets knocked out
