    Amazing isn't it. Felix is accused of getting hometown decisions, yet the truth is the exact opposite!

    It may well be. We can only hope future champions are more forthcoming. Quillin has now taken up the mantle as the divisions biggest ducker it seems.

    Do Sturm fights bring the organization a hefty sanctioning fee, or why is Sturm being recycled repeatedly?

    Stevens will need a KO to win if he takes this fight, no way will the judges give him the nod in Germany

    I don't get it. According to the IBF rules. Sturm shouldn't be getting this shot at an eliminator.

    He can not qualify for an eliminator if he lost his last fight.

    *I think

    Agreed, Sturm has never fought a real G only Euro's, Brit's & Aussie's who have no street cred.

    some fighters always seem to be in position to get title fights even after they have just lost.

    let someone else get a look in.

    Stevens doesn't deserve this chance either. he had a shot at the WBA and failed miserably. all he did was cover up and refuse to fight. to top it off, he then went and quit. all this coming after he put up pictures of coffins and saying what he was going to do...

    no Thanks to either of them.

    real G's get dominated and outclassed against the Brinkley's of the world?

    some G he is then.

    my Mum is tougher. :deal

    He had a rematch clause in the contract with Soliman, I believe. Remember he got caught out badly by not having one with Geale?

    But he may not want to fight Soliman a third time. Is there any point in fighting a guy who has your number. The poor quality of Felix performance was shocking. One of the worst, most sudden losses of form ever. He was clueless I there...I'm baffled as to how he got so bad so fast from his previous two fights where he was excellent.
    What went wrong?
    Was he over trained?
    Did he fight angry and forget how to box?
    Did he just get old overnight?
    Does soliman just have his number?


    Maybe he will retire altogether?
    Or fight AA at 168?
