    With the upcoming fright of Joseph Parker vs his mandatory, Hughie Fury.....

    I'm just wondering when the last time a belt holder fought his mandatory?

    Wilder hasn't, AJ hasn't, Charles Martin didn't, was Stiverne fighting Wilder as his mandatory? Was it Wlad vs Povetkin?

    I don't know, please enlighten me.

    Wilder/Scott was an eliminator, but an utter BS one at that... Wilder hadn't fought anybody and Scott was coming off an embarrassing loss to Chisora.

    "Potentially, we consider the fight against David Haye and IBF champion Anthony Joshua, so if someone beats him, he immediately becomes the possible contender for the fight with the champion - said, Hearn. - If Tony Bellew beats David Haye, he will be a big name and he will unlikely to return to the cruiserweight division. "

    "Belew understands that if he wins Haye, heavyweight doors will open for him - the promoter added. - He's in the final stage of his career. It's not his last fight, but probably he has left five or six fights, so he looks at the greatest opportunities. It is obvious that these opportunities will be in the heavyweight division for Tony Bellew. "

    I scrapped the old cruiserweight thread and united cruiserweight and heavyweight divisions into one thread.

    Maybe he will move to New Zealand like Julious Long did.
