    Dorticos is fighting Gassiev for the WBA (Regular) belt, yet on the WBA website it states that Dorticos in fact holds the interim title, to which Beibut Shumenov holds the regular belt. I'm also curious why on BoxRec it states that Gassiev will fight Dorticos for the Super belt?

    I was certain that whoever wins the tournament will unify with Denis Lebedev, or am I mistaken?

    They are fighting for the IBF World Cruiserweight Title and WBA Super World Cruiserweight Title.

    But Lebedev currently holds the Super belt.

    Well, that's quite strange, indeed.

    WBA are useless. There supposed to be eradicating the problem not making it worse.

    Didn't Lebedev officially retire after his last fight?
    But it's insane that Gassiev has to fight twice for the belt he should already possess. The WBA is full of crab!
