Braehmer pulls out of the fight

Is he considered as a stand-in?
You'd say that would be way too early for my countryman, even with his long and succesful kickboxing career in mind.

 

Yeah one of the tweets on the first page mentions him as a possible semifinal replacement opponent for Smith.

I mean at least he's a few years younger than Brähmer...

And he's more likely to be able to test Smith's chin, I guess.

But yeah, big leap up. He might be better off keeping the Chudinov date and continue just quietly building up his record against faded but respectable names to put some value behind his zero and waiting for a bigger cash out than this.

 

UK Domestic showdown here we come! (Again)

 

That's awful news.

 

I mean, George WAS asking to delay the final anyway...

 

Korobov will likely step in, he is the first in line.

 

Do we know if Braehmer is legitimately sick/injured? He has a history of pulling out of fights for no apparent reason.

 

Finally a chance for Korobov, a chance to show his true potential.

 

Out of the box attempt to gain British fans maybe?

 

According to german news Brähmer is sick with a viral infect and lay in bed for a couple of days now, no chance to recover within 3-4 days so he had to pull out.

 

that sucks carrots.

By the way, I think you should change your O'Sullivan avi to greyscale. Goes perfectly with the theme he set up.

 

This is the problem with these tournaments. It is too difficult to make them run as smoothly as they are supposed to. The 1st smw tournament was hacked to pieces with guys pulling out although at least the best guy won.
