Seems Sakio Bika is really peeved about being blocked in the super middleweight division by being frozen out of the upcoming 'super 6' tournament. So much so, that Bika is planning on moving up a weight division and fight at light heavyweight. Bika has been quoted just recently as saying hed like to fight WBC light heavyweight champ Jean Pascal. Might just be a case of 'where can I fight for a title'. But Bika must be keen for a meaningful fight by now - I know he's got one scheduled for this thursday - but it's been 8 1/2 months!
the guy is the ****en IBO champ and cant get a start, disgraceful **** Abraham, he hasn't even been in the ring at 168... Bika has a right to be pissed. Make it an 8 man tourney and include Bute and Bika IMO
Looks like Mundine VS Bika is getting further away :yep I hope Mundine is at the Bika fight Thursday and offers to fight him
I like Bika but Pascal is one of my favourite fighters and Bika doesn't really have much of a chance against him. He'd be better off fighting Erdei (wont happen) or Campillo/Shumenov for the WBA.
I'l retract a post I made where Sakio pulled out of the Green fight. That was wrong. Green pulled out of that fight and signed for Oganov. Look for Sakio to now try and get WBO super middle champ Karoly Balzsay on the Andade/Bute card in Canada, Nov 28.
On a technical level, Pascal would dominate Bika. But being such a long-reach, akward and often dirty fighter, Bika is always dangerous. He's got power and heart, I'll give him that as well, but I would worry more about headbutts and elbows than anything else if I was Pascal...
