If you beat Jason Gavern: you have just earned yourself a shot at the title. If you beat Joseph Parker: you have just lost your number 1 spot.
I think WBO one upped everyone by making Usyk the mandatory, and right after that declaring that Joshua won´t have to face a (WBO) mandatory for 18 months. Holy ****. This was also a good one: This content is protected
They are all corrupt. To be fair, the WBC at least has the best hw rankings of all the orgs. Of their top 15, no one looks completely out of place and only 4 of them aren't on my list. Wba has Oquendo, flores, Bryan, dinu, Wallin, fujimoto who have absolutely no business on any top 15 list (at least yet, for dinu, Bryan and Wallin, never again for Oquendo, and never period for Flores and fujimoto). Ibf is somewhere between WBC and wba, and wbo is on a whole other planet of insanity. I haven't even heard of half their list
If you beat the second best cruiser weight in Albania in your first fight in 3 years following retirement and a cocaine and alcohol fuelled blow out to 26 stones you should be promoted to number 7 in the heavyweight rankings. If you lose a title shot the number one ranked challenger should have to fight you before getting a go at the champion.
