    What makes Stiverne think he deserves title shot after getting dropped by Rossy 2 years ago?

    Much as I hate Stiverne at the moment, would you pass up a 400k payday for a 100k payday? WBC is the real guilty party for making him a completely undeserving mandatory in the first place. Arreola was criticized for being mandatory twice in a row but at least he beat Mitchell to justify it. Stiverne got kdd by a journeyman.

    The same way Andre Berto, Chris Algieri, Jeff Horn etc etc can get a title shot.

    becos massive layers of fat have dramatically improved his ability to box, thus turning him from a minor world titlist to a faster harder hitting fitter better more skilled ATG-killing superheavyweight.

    if you are dumass who thinks fat people are the best boxers, that is.

    None of them were mandatories though (were they?)
    Stiverne is not deserving of a title shot in the least but
    once again the WBC is going to enforce this crap. I hope
    Stiverne takes the step aside money being negotiated between
    King and Haymon
