    And Murray has no business at 168.

    Murray's strengths are his size and physical strength at 160, going up negates thus as to be fair he isn't great at any one thing, similar to when Pavlik left 160.

    But you just said Abraham is awful at 168, and really is a 160 pounder right? So it's basically 2 guys at the same size fighting each other. Abraham is shot to **** right now, dude got fking schooled by Zurdo all 12 rounds. GGG's best win could not beat this guy.

    Well what was he do?

    Be stripped of the IBF? Not saying it would of happened.

    But again you're talking as though I'm saying it was a great win, I'm not, never have.

    Wade as a mando was bogus. They tried to build Wade off his undefeated record as a viable opponent but nobody fell for that ****.

    He won the belt in NOVEMBER, eh did not have to fight his mando in april. Do you know the rules of the sanctioning bodies? Jesus christ.

    Fully agree.

    The fact my 13yo son has more muscle tone than "thug life" Wade said it all.

    It wasn't possible for FURY to fight his mando in time because he had a REMATCH CLAUSE WITH WLAD. There was 8 months inbetween that time, and you have to defend within 9 months I believe or maybe 10 I forget.

    HBO needs to keep that "TKO" streak alive... Bring on more Walking Dead opponents.

    GGG was ordered to fight Dominic Wade next by the IBF. This left GGG one of two choices:

    1) Fight Wade, clearly not a good quality opponent.

    2) Drop the belt, ruining his dream of unifying the division.

    You can see why he chose to fight Wade, K2 were negotiating a fight with Korobov before the IBF enforced the mandatory. Hence most of the blame here falls on the IBF for enforcing Wade.
