    I didn't know Fres was even still fighting. Isn't he about 45 by now? Lol

    I'm not followed Chagaev lately; it is a good to see him still fighting and back in the mix

    Apparently the next WBA head is going to cut down to 1 belt per division (thank god), and every division with multiple WBA Champs will have a tourney to determine the true Champ and then all the interim/regular titles will be done.

    I like Brown finally getting his chance

    Ortiz vs a durable Ustinov should be fun it should go rounds and be a good test

    Wlad and Fury rematch makes sense though I kind of wnt the Wilder fight after the post fight display

    I agree. Screw all this nonsense have Fury fight Wilder for all the marbles.

    Any source other than the Daily Mail?

    The reason this seems hard to believe is it would require the WBA Super Champion to fight 2 consecutive mandatories.

    But obviously I hope it happens because if the Fury/Klitschko winner must face the Ortiz/Ustinov winner, that sets up an explosive 2016 for the heavyweight lineal championship.

    What's wrong with Ustinov? :?

    He would beat Oquendo, Browne and Chagaev and the Ortiz fight would be 50/50 ...
