http://www.asianboxing.info/asian-news/bethuel-ushona-to-pursue-manny-pacquiao-bout Is it posturing from the Namibian or are they serious? Gotta say it is odd how many Namibians are ranked and where they are ranked by the WBO right now
"Threats from Ushona's team have been strong we can't help, but feel they are just being difficult in an attempt to get a big step asid payment". FFS Ushona is no.1, so he should rightly be made mandatory or get some "step aside". I mean how the hell did Marquez-Alvardo get to be a final eliminator when Alvarado had never fought at 147lbs?
Wont happen. As i have bitched about this subject before i know it wil not happen. When was the last mandatory defence for the WBO belt?
Bethel Ushona lost to Denton Vassell in the U.K a couple of years ago in a Commonwealth title fight, but he's went on to beat former IBF champion Isaac Hlatshwayo and former challenger Kaiser Mabuza. Ushona's not a bad fighter, but he's not great either.
