    I'm confused!
    So wilder is the wbc champ.
    Povetkin and stiverne are fighting an eliminator.
    Whyte chisora just fought an eliminator.
    Parker and h.fury are next in line for a shot at wilder????
    If Haye beats Bellew for the wbc cruiser does he get a chance at the wbc heavy??

    WBA???
    Browne banned, Briggs next in line,
    Ortiz champ? Ustinov and oqendo next in line???

    Help!

    Povetkin/Stiverne for interim becomes mandatory to Wilder, Whyte/Chisora exactly what you said, parker and H.fury don't have to be next in line but Parker wants Wilder and Wilder reportedly wants H. Fury. and definitive no to the Bellew question.

    WBA Briggs mandated for regular i believe, Ortiz stripped or vacated interim champ, ustinov/oquendo are legally entitled to fight for title, so all in all for WBA i don't think anyone has a clue apart from AJ/Klit for Super title

    Povetkin/Stiverne but he'll probaly take a tune up first as hes been out. Whyte doesn't come into it yet, was just an eliminator not a final eliminator

    Thanks mate.
    Think I was supposed to buy a ticket from you a couple of weeks ago but it fell through. Sorry about that
