    when ward can go 2 years without defending his title and 7 years without a mandatory you might as well forget about the wba:lol:

    they strip froch of his regular title and his more active than ward:lol:

    His problem seems to be the opposite.

    He thinks he's too good for mandatories and thinks he should be fighting Canelo and Cotto.

    He seems to over emphasise his pulling power.

    I wonder if dropping the belts has anything to do with contract negotiations? I know that a lot of guys sign five year contracts with their promoter that gets extended two years in the even that they win a title. This is to incentivize the promoter to get the fighter a title shot, and then to make it pay since guys with titles make more. I wonder if going inactive and getting stripped like Ward and Andrade might be a move to get out of their contracts? They both seem to be playing the same game.

    Also, where is Mikey Garcia? Didn't he sign with Haymon and then stop fighting?

    Froch wasn't stripped. He gave the belt up voluntarily. He said he was retiring.

    no he was forced to vacate his belt before he retired after negotiations with ward fell through. Ward kept his belt dispite being inactive way longer

    Who is promoting him these days????:patsch:patsch:patsch

    Uncle BHOP best get him signed back with Oscar so he can get back in the ring.

    I think they could probably get a fight with Bundrage or Molina made pretty quickly.

    I really like Boo Boo. He totally impressed me holding off Martirosyan.

    But since then.....next to nothing. :patsch
