    Grady suffered a knee problem right after he won season II. That's why he was inactive. He just fought the other day. He scored a 2nd round KO over some kid who was 18-0. That's the 4th time Grady has stolen some kid's zero!:yep

    ATTENTION promoters and managers: DO NOT put your undefeated prospect in with my man Grady "Bad Boy" Brewer:deal

    Really Manfredo are you serious 15-40 Manfredo is around #38 the man lost to Lacy blown out by Calzaghe lost to Alphonso Gomez for god sakes, he lost to Mora and your saying beatin him earns Bika a shot?

    You need to sit down and just watch the sport

    :patsch

    Bika beat Soliman, then Soliman went for the world title in Australia. Bika beat highly ranked conteder Codrington (who himself made some noise blowing out competition in the tourney). Bika also blew away Manfredo, in a way even Calzaghe, an ATG couldn't. That's 3 different quality of contenders, but one thing is common: Bika dominated them. And there comes someone like Andre Dirrell, beating absolutely nobody other than an already exposed Victor Oganov and now going for Froch's world title, while Bika stays home... So tell me if it's all right... :huh

    He had a few big shots. He lost to Bute and Calzaghe. He has three loses. Why should anyone want to fight him? He's well on his way to being a stepping stone for younger fighters. Until then he's just dangerous enough not to want to fight without a big payday.

    I can't believe you just said the IBO is increasing in respect. **** that!

    that being said I am anxious to see Bika's next fight.

    Soliman what the ****? Sure he was a good fighter but damn even he is a washed up journeyman it does not earn him a shot, he is going to have to fight some bigger names to get in that place.
    TOo bad the divison has a tourney there are no names left for him right now they are all fighting, a win over miranda might do the trick

    Well, I'm sure another poster would turn up to tell us how shot and weak Miranda is...

    Possibly I Just cant think of any right now that would get him another shot I think he is worthy of it if he performs like this against a Miranda or an andrade or someone like that, but I doubt based on Soliman, Cor, and Manfredo, I just dont see it there it just doesnt work for me,....

    Troy won't have the same problem Sakio is having.... Unlike Sakio, Troy is in a division full of people that not many people heard of... He's probably as known here as Adamek and Cunningham....

    With that said, I sen Sakio's fight with Manfredo, and his punches were looking a little straighter... Sakio has fought Soliman, Beyer, Calzaghe, Bute.... Sure he's 1-3-1 against those guys but he was competitive against those guys.. Him and Jaidon made for a great fight which would make you think that Bika/Green could be just as exciting... Robert Stieglitz, the guy who stopped that unbeaten guy for his belt, is available.... His fights are also fun to watch... The first Berrio fight, Andrade fight... Even tho it was one sided, it was entertaining to watch... Bika/Stieglitz should be made... Definitely worth a B.A.D. showing... OR ShoBox...
