And is that because Joshua is going to become the latest Eddie Hearn fighter to become world champ after Brook, DeGale and Selby and as we know, Eddie Hearn introduced your mum to butt stuff? A Yank like you probably loves the WBA having 3 champions per weight class and doing stuff like promoting Broner (coming off a loss to Kell Brook's son) beating a guy who hasn't fought in two years (also coming off a loss) to Super Champion :hi::hi::hi: And before you start showing butthurt about Brook's mando's what we all know that's coming, bare in mind Bundu, Khan, Bradley, Porter, Alexander and Ali all turned down final eliminators. :hi::hi:
1 and 2 you have to pay for 3 teper has been found cheating a month or so ago and is still ranked 4 joshua has not fought enough top 50 opposition to be ranked so high 5 takam got kod by povetkin who is not ranked at all 6 parker good prospect but has not beaten anyone 7 glaskov on paper because of his opposition and his injury might be fair but IMO he is not a top 10 figher h2h and is to small and has no power foir the better fighters 8/cunningham lost to fury by ko and drew with light heavy oap tarver 9/andy ruiz ? why 10 stiverne - sluggish v rossy but got the win 11/ pulev = should be rated in top 5 12 =helnius -**** or get off the pot 13 chisrora =zimbabwe ? because of a drug ban / he is not a top 15 fighter -good trialhorse 14 ustinov =on the downslope quit v pulev. 15 breazale = no ortiz whats he black or something. no wlad only ruled the division for 10 years no povetkin WTF
They enforce mandatories which is a good thing. Unfortunaately it seems rather easy to become a mandatory with the IBF. Overall I prefer them to the other organisations.
they enforce mandatorys simply because you have to actually pay them to get a mandatory slot. they would then have to pay the money back if they did not. you do not even have to be ranked in there top 15 to get a mandatory eliminator just have the money ready.
The IBF, WBC, WBA, and WBO are all corrupt the core. They are all equally bad and their antics, both individually and collectively, continue to do the sport far more harm than good. They all suck! :smoke
If anything, the IBF are the ones who stick to their rules. Glazkov earned his mandatory shot, and they made sure he got it, even though they would've made a fortune being invovled in the Fury v Klitschko rematch. Would the WBA or WBC turn down that kind of money? :think
When have they turned down someone who wanted to unify? A recent example s they was happy for GGG to fight another champion but if not he had to fight his mando
