Lol- when people ask me in the future what Ruiz was like I will quote you. That is a hell of a champion.
If they sanctioned Chagaev-Drummond as a title fight, then, right, they don't have a leg to stand on to deny sanction on this one. Love the Ruiz quote.
ALL boxing fans know that this fight is for the WBA title, even if the suits endorse it or not, but if they did *officially* endorse it, it'd be great and would make things clearer.
i thought the wbahad ruled over a week ago that nico was wba champion and chaggy was stripped of his champ in recess status? if this is true then cool as hell im looking forward to klit knocking chaggy out for just about all the marbles except for the wbc which we will have to wait for haye to take that from vitali
Folks, adding the WBA title would be wise, however, it will also clutter things up to the maxi-pad.................... NONE of the friggin' ABC groups can ever agree on who the # 1 pretender is....... SO! Therefore, Wlad Klit would only be stripped by some ABC group in a matter of months if he is to beat and take away Russ Chagaev's belt on Saturday...... It is almost impossible to hold onto the IBF, WBO, IBO & WBA titles all at once for any length in time....... Wlad Klit will want to go ahead and fight someone on HBO and than a bogus ABC group will balk and strip him if he goes through with his disapproved fight....... I've seen this all before...... MR.BILL
