    84-11-3 (76) in favor of GGG.

    V-Mart has an 11.2% share of the votes, some of which may have been cast "ironically" with no expectation this fight would become real. Well, it has. :deal:

    This is the second time one of his orgs chose not to sanction his cherry pick. :drooling:

    I believe the IBF were the ones spearheading the rejection of Martirosyan a couple of weeks ago, with their rival organizations just parroting them but then caving the moment it was appealed.

    Slap a poncho and sombrero on either one and they probably could pass.

    That's a good fight for a guy like Lara, but for Golovkin not so much.

    The WBA didn't sanction the Brook fight either.

    Lousy fight, but what can you expect. At least StubHub is likely to preside over another knockout.

    I see that the WBC (We Believe Clenelo) installed Vanes as the #1 contender... Was this BEFORE Clenelogate happened?
