    Yep Kel it's a shame the way the sport of boxing has gone with so many ridiculous "world titles" per weight class nowadays when fools like Geales/Solibums can call themselves world champions and complete frauds like Grinning Greens can call himself a 4 time 3 weight boxing world champion. It's absolutely shocking how low the sport of boxing has fallen. You have officials from orgs such as the IBO justifying setting up world title fights with fighters from lower weight classes and being ranked as low as 50 in their own rankings. It's complete comedy.

    That s h itty IBO org belts are regarded as a booby prize joke up in the Northern Hemisphere and i hear Billy Joe Saunders is going to weight one in for scrap if he ever wins one , on another note i hear my fellow sheeps arse burgling buddies in NZ have banned Peter Fury from entering the country .

    Yeah apparently. Bit of a shame you would think they would realise he isn't going to go on a crime spree. Still rules are rules.

    I reckon the IBF has become a joke over the last 10 years they make complete bums their mandatory's. This is why bums like Geales, solibum & Sylvester were able to hold the middleweight title and probably one of the reasons Jacobs skipped their second weigh in.

    He did it to get an advantage (which is legal and smart).

    What's the plan for glolovkin now? Fight Saunders in Kazakh in May/June and hope Canelo throws him a bone for a big pay fight September?

    I think that Canelo will throw him a bone in September especially after seeing the Jacobs fight Golden Boy will be a lot more confident in a Canelo victory.

    I agree the main reason was for the advantage which was smart but also who cares about the IBF strap.

    That would be the plan though if something goes wrong injury,bad cut or Saunders wins that goes out the window. Oscar apparently said if GGG fights in June the September fight is off according to this thread post #4.

    In this case yes it means something but the Golovkin Jacobs fight did not need the IBF strap to be a big fight. GGG is the first good fighter to hold the IBF 160 pound strap since Arthur Abraham. Since then it has been passed around by bums like Sylvester, Geales, Barker, Sturm, Solibums, Completely shot version of Jermaine Taylor then vacant belt won by B level Lemiuex.

    The Horn bum has zero charisma just like Danni No Mas.
