    Kovalev is fighting Browne
    Adonis is fighting Jack
    Gvozdyk has just won the WBC interim and a match up against the winner of Adonis and Jack awaits him
    Not sure what Joe Smith is doing but I doubt he's take a shot against Artur for his first fight back after suffering a broken jaw. It wouldn't be the best idea in the world.
    Not sure what Eleider Alvarez is doing but he and Artur are or were up until recently stable mates and they're friends or at least on friendly terms as they've trained together a lot

    And anyway Browne was the only one of those guys ranked in the IBF top 15

    As for the IBF top 10 rankings

    Everyone in the top 8 (not sure who 1 and 2 are because those positions are vacant on the rankings I'm looking at) have either turned the fight down, just lost this past weekend, or are unavailable. So that leaves #9 Feng or #10 Koelling (who Artur just beat) out of the top 10 or whoever replaces the guys that just lost. Murat just beat Travis Reeves who was at #8 so maybe he'll step up to the plate.

    Just as I predicted. This is like reading a children's book for Serge. Always.

    Nothing wrong with him supporting his countrymen not sure why you added the patronizing remark. You have no qualms and pull no punches with your overwhelming support of EE fighters so why is there an issue when patriotism is expressed by a brother who shares the same land as you.

    Come on Serge don’t be so bitter, you’re pretty biased and subjective though I’ve always noticed a least a smidge of rationalism here and there.

    It probably has something to do with Ward's overall repellant, vomitus, smarmy, smug, condescending, yet bland as stale bread personality.

    The gym is blasting some crappy Eminem playlist on my 5am session, and Andre Ward microaggressing me is compounding all my suffering. :-(

    He's gotta get into a different market, make a bunch of low money fights so he can get that HBO/SHO $$$ and lure some contenders into the ring.

    As for Yarde...
    Can he get 75k for 2 minutes work and an overnight stay at the ER doing observation?
    We all agree he's fringe at best.

    Why not take a KO to a beast early, then go on a can crushing tour for a legit payday

    Nobody cares what Scourge has to say about the sport. He's a low level trash poster. I bring out the real dick blower in Scourge when I insult fighters that he likes.

    He can be a bit self righteous I’ll admit that but most uniquely gifted folks have something off about them. I’m not saying the guy is incredible but it takes a highly dedicated and somewhat off beat person to garner the type of pugilistic success that he has obtained. He’s bewildered and frustrated the best for a decade so maybe he isn’t your cup of tea it doesn’t mean that his opinion or his resume is any less substantial.

    I can’t really criticize him for showing the almost extreme support of his cultural compadres. We are who we are it’s when we refuse to recognize and tolerate the success and talents of others that we become detriments to the success of human society.

    He’s not that bad, he’s just attempting to keep what he knows relevant.

    To be fair, Beterbiev should be regarded as the most dangerous LH out there. Because not only he's a good boxer with a quite long amateurish career, he's also a ferocious warrior with very powerful punches, who can literally break faces — he can break your nose, break your jaw. And it's really scary to face an opponent like that. Not many boxers were enthusiastic to face Mike Tyson, for example.

    But that also proves that Yarde is... well, maybe not a fraud, but he's definitely overrated.
