Johann Duhaupas/Carlos Takam for the WBC Silver heavyweight title on 28 January

Before getting knocked out, I would have picked Duhaupas, but I can't remember the last time somebody fought a month after being ko'd like that and won against a game opponent. I have to go with Takam for this one now.

 

Both guys desperately need the win. Who has more left in the tank? At his best Takam is a superior fighter, I'll roll with him hoping he isn't shot. Takam Ud

 

its the wbc they only want the worst of the worst in their rankings

 

We don't need to see Deontay fight either of those guys - especially not Duhaupas all things considered.

 

hahaha you actually think the wbc will make him face anyone half decent?

wilder is on course to break joe louis's record and the wbc are loving it

 

Tommy Morrison must looking down thinking why couldn't he have had that level of protection!

 

tommy morrison should contact the wbc, they will probably try to make him wilders next mandatory hahahaha

 

Who's got a ouija board laying around?

 

im sure sulaiman has already tried it.

wilder a beyond a joke at this stage, i cant even insult him anymore its not funny

 

Wouldn't be surprised if this fight is push back/cancelled.

 

You could be right. It's not listed on boxrec when it used to be before Duhaupas was ko'd.

"The fight between Johann Duhaupas and Carlos Takam, scheduled for January 28, for the first defense of his title of champion WBC "Silver"In the category of heavy goods vehicles, is postponed. Arrested until January 17, following his k.-o. Against the Russian Povetkin, as stipulated in the regulations, the Abbevillois must stay a month without taking blows, knowing that the promoter of the fight, Salvador Cherchi, did not give news. " The field of battle was not fixed, there was no television, says Mehdi Ameur, Duhaupas agent. We will postpone the fight in one or two months. It will happen but we do not know when, where and how. Everything depends on the promoter . " [using google translate]

So did something change or just more typical fake news on the forum.

 

Makes sense.
Would be dangerous to Duhaupas to have a fight like that so soon after the Povetkin fight
