    World of Boxing have the money and the interest to host a big card in Russia to pull it of.

    I wouldn't be surprised if the top bid will be $75k or so. This must be the least marketable HW "championship" fight in quite a while.

    I think WBA minimum purse bid for a HW belt fight is 350k $.
    If no one bids this high it will get rescheduled :lol:

    Least important purse bid ever.

    It'll probably top out in triple digits.

    Finally. Oquendo is the rightful heir to the prestigious WBA regular belt.

    Nobody will bid on it. They’ll have to let a promoter negotiate with them for less money.

    Why in the world is Fres Oquendo the WBA mandatory?

    He hasn't fought since July 2014, and that fight resulted in a loss to Ruslan Chagaev.

    not to disrespect charr or anything... but why are these 2 fighting for a belt.. this is embarrassing to boxing heavyweight division... the wba wanted to reduce titles ... then they go make a regular heavyweight title again...

    Hoping for an Mthalane-esque bid winner...

    Just please don't let Don King or his reps in the building.
