Looks like this will happen in Russia in December. Super WBA CW belt on the line. What a farce. Whose jaw will crack first?
Jones KO-2. Don't sell him short, in his prime he hit as hard as GGG, and now that he cant move anymore he digs into every shot.
Jones sold out his allegiance to the USA just to get his hands on a last belt. Call it devotion or plain insanity, I am not sure.
Yes, he claimed on his passport that he's a Russian. The only U.S. citizen I can recall who tried to become a Russian this badly was Lee Harvey Oswald.
I just checked the WBA website. Their new "super" cruiserweight division is so legit they don't even rate any boxers in that division. You figure they'd at least "attempt" to rank 10 guys before creating a new division and (presumably) three "more" belts for that division. http://www.wbanews.com/wba-ranking What a trainwreck.
They haven't created a new division, they only have a regular and interim champion at cruiser, the 'super' belt is vacant.
WBA Heavyweight Rankings. 1. Vacant. 2. Tyson Fury 3. Lucas Browne 4. Fres Oqeundo 5. Shannon Briggs Good ****ing grief.
