Golovkin I like Hurd alot but he takes so much damage walking forward that his style won't work against someone who hits hard
Logan Phillips
I think Canelo would stop Hurd. Hurd's just too hittable.
Thomas Peterson
How does Hurd make 154? Are his bones not dense? Anatomically, it doesn’t make sense.
Jayden Campbell
by that logic 90s boxers must have been the best because they could roid recklessly , nowadays the testing is very advanced so they have to careful with steroids and do shit like microdosing
Jordan Morris
It's honestly insane how much better the average MMA fighter is than the average boxer, let alone comparing the cream of the crop. Daniel Cormier could roll off the couch, strap on 16 ounce pillows, and beat Anthony Joshua into a living death in boxing in under a rounds, and in MMA it wouldn't even last a minute. Joshua looks like a spastic autismite on horse beef compared to DC, I cannot emphasise this enough. AJ is the undisputed GOAT of Boxing and yet if he applied himself to a real sport like MMA he wouldn't even get beyond a feeder organization. That's how astrologically huge the difference in skillset is between boxing and MMA. >but the footwork! the striking! Are you serious? Are you serious? Be serious. These are world class athletes, they aren't just going to stand-up and trade like some drunk boxing retard. A MMA fighter needs to be choked unconscious before he even thinks of giving up, and trust me some drooling boxing dopenut trying to clobber a MMA fighter with wild telegraphed meathooks isn't gonna come close to touching an MMA fighter with their head movement, let alone stay on his feet long enough to land on the guard.
It's a term used by casuals who don't know shit about the skill in boxing, all they see are ripped negro men dominate bums and call them very athletic
Colton White
Why do so many boxers have those marks on their abdomen?

Robert Rodriguez
I think it's a ravens one I think they do their numbers the same way
Charles Morgan
Heavyweight division just became boring as fuck thanks to Jarrell "I swear on my mothers life I didn't" Miller. Fury has fucked off to ESPN and Wilder isn't going to fight another top 10 rated boxer again after Breazeale who is a fucking bum himself. Joshua will duck Fury hard as well because he knows he's nowhere near the lanklets skill level.
What a shit time to be alive. I need to time travel back to the 90s.
Anthony Thompson
>thanks to Jarrell "I swear on my mothers life I didn't" Miller. You mean thanks to Eddie Hearn? Even you must realize that Miller didn't REALLY take EPO, HGH, and whatever that third one was called. Miller was going to fucking ruin Joshua, and Hearn didn't want any of that.
ali was larger than life, noone inspired people like he did
Jaxson Torres
yeah Frazier was blind in one eye,and a cut opened above his right eye nice stoppage you got there
Nicholas Jones
>not using 4chanx
Hudson Garcia

hating on him like that just shows ydsab and foreman himself would disapprove
Adrian Collins
why is boxing so physically demanding compared to other ''sports'' lads
Wyatt Green

Nicholas Cox
How much is Steve Rolls’ purse for the GGG fight?
Jeremiah Adams
boxing isn't a hard sport, it doesn't require nearly as much skill as tennis or football to be a top athlete, it's only hard in terms of mental strength
Juan Barnes
It's hard to breathe if you're eating a jab
Liam Howard
>he fought life and death with a post foreman Frazier and lost all 3 fights to Ken Norton lmfao. What ya talking about ya bum, Ali beat Norton 2/3 times. Muhammad Ali has the best resume of any Heavyweight known to man.
He robbed shavers too. Go watch his fights instead of webms and highlights he doesn't deserve half the praise he gets.
Jaxon Miller
it's insanely tiring, mentally and physically. all other sports involve extended rest periods where the mind and body can recover, even during "active" play. a 12 round fight is both a marathon and a sprint, it's inhumanly punishing.
Ryan Hill
are you gonna challenge him and then chicken out like the pole
Owen Williams
he's fucking retarded, you haven't seen him speak "German" yet. Imagine a Romanian gypsy posting nonsense all the time.
>on an empty stomach >he actually eats Kebab before working out no wonder you're getting whopped
Julian Martin
he's a middleweight, would be kinda pointless to fight him
Brody Lee
for whoever that was
Christopher Scott
Reminder: 2x Olympic Gold medalist Guillermo Rigondeaux Quit against a guy who was beaten by an Uber driver
How to be a hipster contrarian in Boxing 101: Just look for decisions and go "No, X fighter actually won this, all 3 judges were wrong." When someone calls you out on your bullshit and goes "Actually, no, the judges were right." just proceed to say they haven't watched the fight and DKSAB.
You can never lose an argument with this one quick trick!
>he thinks he could beat me because he's heavier lmfao I'm ~ 73kg atm and I can guarantee I would whoop you even if you weighed 85kgs. You never even had a single fight in your life. I seriously doubt you're ever boxed considering you think you can beat someone just because you're heavier. Whooping a casual heavwyweight as a middleweight is nothing special. I have unironically seen welterweights beating the shit out of casual heavyweights boxers.
>yeah I could totally beat a heavyweight training six times a week, doesn't matter I'm a out of shape middleweight
Chase Cox
haven't followed boxing in a while and i'm seeing a lot of german flags here. are germans still promoting eastern european bums and bribing judges for them?
Leo Ramirez
When i see a german flag in boxing i automaticaly think of a 6' fat Albanian immigrant heavyweight with a score 6-32
A lot of shit, but guess you want to know what's he's saying about rigo. >He want's to bring rigo for sparrings due his extensive experience. >Although he doesnt speak often with rigo, he has a good relationship with him.
I am 21, have about 2 months of boxing experience from my Uni's boxing club, if I wanted to go pro in Boxing/MMA what path would I take? I was thinking of joining a boxing gym or pairing kickboxing and MMA and training in all my free time to get good. I would be fighting at heavyweight or light heavyweight. I graduate Uni in two weeks, last week of classes now. I was considering joining a Boxing/MMA gym to learn wrestling and kickboxing. Would I have better chances of going pro in Boxing/MMA, and what steps should I take?
Robert Morales
>21 You have no chance, you are and will always be a bum

If you kill yourself for boxing you can achieve national level, most likely you'll never be able to compete at world level against the elites because of their years of amateur experience or deep schooling

Cooper Jones
a 16 year old guy from my gym started boxing in march 2018 but he trains like a maniac 3-4 times sparring every week (at our gym and in other gyms against guys he hasn't fought before) even before he knew that he's going to have his first fight
he had his first fight 2 weeks ago and he won. other guy didn't even had a chance
what I'm trying to tell you is that yes - it is possible, but you won't have much free time. you really have to love it, don't even try it if you don't like to train very hard run every morning for 30 minutes
>heavyweight or light heavyweight Those divisions are worlds apart.
Dominic Hughes
Why eastern euros invariably either dress like bond villains like GGG or mobsters like kovalev? I still wanna know where he gets those shirts from
Leo Nguyen
I meant cruiserweight
Adrian Ortiz
not in the amateurs
Dylan Peterson
The heavier the weight class the more forgiving the skill gap sadam Ali got stopped 2 nights ago by a guy who had 25 amateur fights. Get down to 175 there's very little money at cruiser and lots of killers if you're actually going to try an fight that's were you want to be
Showtime KINO incoming. The DAZN videos on Canelo-Jacobs were alright, but All Access stands ontop of the mini-docu series game unrivaled. ESPN doesn't do any of this, DAZN's mini-docu series isn't as good, and FOX's production values are genuinely bottom of the barrel. All Access will never be as kino as 24/7, but it sure is picking up the slack a bit.
>21 chances you'll be a successful pro are almost 0. Lapring & clueless Turk throwing a retarded tale of a 16!y old who won 2 fights at you. He probably isn't even boxing that's how clueless he is.
It could work if you were incredibly talented but a tainer would immediately see that and tell you so. I can't think of any boxer starting out this late apart from Ray Mercer.
Hudson Allen
It's a shame, I actually like Breazeale, but he's gonna get fucking bombed into another reality. I wonder how much All Access is gonna focus in on Wilder and Breazeale's beef. First fight ever I think Wilder has actual beef with the person he's fighting so it won't need to be manufactured like the final Wilder-Fury press conference was. Like there was that incident from a year or two back where Wilder's brother and crew roughed up Breazeale a bit.
Not the user you're talking about, but my cousin started at 18 and he's the Trout-Gausha co-main. You don't always have to start out real early to get to the top of pro-Boxing, especially not at bigger weight classes.
Andrew Smith
>18 He is fucking 21, not 18. And even @ 18 have to be talented.
>especially not at bigger weight classes the lower the weight class the lower your chances to actually make it as a late starter.
Easton Lewis
>the lower the weight class the lower your chances to actually make it as a late starter. That's what i'm saying.
Eli Wright
So anybody noticed that they fucked up Danny's ring walk?
As I said, he would have to be incredibly gifted, like having a Golovkin/Gassiev/Wilder tier punch or being a true natural heavyweight without being fat. But actually getting slick at that age, close to impossible. It's like learning to play the piano at that age. At 21 your brain isn't wired the way as it was at a younger age.. but if your definition of "successful" is being a D or C level punchingbag, sure but at what benefit–cost ratio?
Carson Wilson

Matthew Nelson
Because /heem/ is full of underaged autistic spergs
I believe learning to play the piano or drawing is easier to do later in life compared to boxing. Specially if you never had the foundations as a young guy. I did boxing for a couple of years from 16 to 18, then quit for a long while and started again now at 25 almost 26, and there's an enormous difference between me and guys who started in their mid-late 20s without ever having done it before, and still a very big difference between me and guys who have been doing it since kids.
When white isn't busy getting threatened with ass beating from fishnets he's getting mogged by Hearn. Sad.
Retarded broscience questions like this should be taken to fit
Austin James
Not necessarily, Canelo slimmed a bit for the 2nd GGG fight and it helped his stamina, pac and Rungvisai have big calf's that probably help with their power

>Canelo schools stiff flat footed Callum for 9 rounds >Canelo gasses >Are Callum plods towards Canelo with his high guard and knocks him out >Beefy, Swifty, Mongo, Deano, Wazza and the whole Smith clan invades the ring in celebration, Joe Gallagher wins Trainer of the Year again
can't decide if this is the best or worst timeline
>I have a big connection with this legendary boxer. We were born on the same day, that’s true. When I knew the tournament for the Muhammad Ali trophy would take place, I couldn’t believe it
he and GGG are tied 1-1 but I can't respect Canelo due to the blatant corruption tied to him drawing and winning. it's disgusting. if he goes up to fight Mundo, then that corruption is balanced out by him doing something very dangerous, even more dangerous than fighting GGG in his natural weight class while cutting a lot more weight and being protected as boxing's golden boy.
Jonathan Morgan
that doesn't sound like it benefited Bellew at all. he doesn't make for a very good Faust
Isaiah Bennett
Wrong he called him out. He send the contract and ggg wanted a catchweight of 164.
Jackson Powell
Corruption my ass. Canelo made ggg look like a BUM and took his belts.

typical white boys blowing up their slav hype jobs...Andrew Tabiti is the truth
Asher Collins
GGG “Well, let’s stop talking about son and father, father and son,” Golovkin said, according to his translator. “This is Abel’s game, Abel’s line. I know exactly what happened, so I don’t think it’s that important, what he said about father and son. It’s just all playing games on Abel’s side.”
interesting move. if he beats Campbell, he's in prime position to challenge any of Prograis, Taylor, Baranchyk, and Hooker. none of them would say no to such a big name. plus Mikey Garcia is an option as well.
very interesting move.
John Howard
You have to go back
Noah Cook
>soviet Usyk is 100% Varangian Swedish blood. He wuz vikang
He'll go for Commey after that I think. He wants undisputed at 135.
Chase Garcia
Spence would smoke that Bud right down to the roach
Nicholas Mitchell
it's a miserable fuck who would try to take away from Usyk what he's done. dude is a road warrior; that's unheard of in this day and age. he is gunning for the best and is taking on massive challenges. you wouldn't know anything about that, though. only spineless faggots talk shit online about people who don't even know they exist. let's see how he does against Dorticos. I'm not gassing up Usyk, though. his road so far has been awesome
Eli Bennett
based and checked
Charles White
that would be fun I suppose, though I'd rather see him fight Mikey if he wants to stay at LW. can't see an option that would be more lucrative or rewarding for Garcia after he got whooped by Spence
Austin Flores
GGG. Hurds style only works if the other guy has a chin that you could at least chip away at. Realistically the only guys that could beat GGG in that division is canelo and jacobs. And they already beat him, also jacobs is moving up.
John Morales
since Kovalev has been flushed by the legal system and his own subhuman impulses, is Gvozdyk vs. Bivol THE fight at 175?
Landon Scott
Yall realize that Demetrius Andrade is a few months away from being undisputed middleweight champion right?
Joyce started the Abel exodus. Saving G in the process I'm sure Usyk appreciates your defence of his legacy already. I'm sure after he looks like a damsel in distress against the big heavyweights you'll regurgitate the same lines when he inevitable gets clocked
and I'm sure you'll be a meek wallflower all your life who feels strong chatting shit online because he has 0 agency in the real world. your existence is a tragedy
if/when Usyk loses to the bigger skilled guys, I'll applaud him for at least trying to do something great (something your chickenshit self knows nothing about)
Luis Thomas
What's the backstory behind the Wilder and Breazeale beef?
Tyler Taylor
Dave Allen, Daniel Dubois, Chisora, would KO Joe Joyce
Hell maybe even Pricey chins him
Ayden Russell
golovkin beat both get over it
Easton Hall
if only
Angel Brown
he's at his absolute max even Crolla looked noticeably bigger than him and he's not even that big a lightweight
Cooper Fisher
do you see him getting heemed at SLW? or worse, getting outclassed and clearly losing a decision?
Jayden Hughes
Looks like someone hasn't seen any of the 24 rounds between these men
Ryan Garcia
I'm sure we can discuss the metaphysical depth of Oleksandr's success further if you like. It is a bit boring at this point though since I prefer the future Dubois impressed me against Lartey with a decent chin. He didn't take getting hit too well mentally though so I'm not sure he is ready, especially since he doesn't read his opponents too well. Allen struggled against Lenroy Thomas so no and the other 2 are passed it
Easton Harris
Loma doesn't get outclassed. If anything, he gets sparked clean out if he moves up
John Lee
at some point, size differential > skill. he might still be the best mechanical boxer, but someone may be able to bully him and make him look weaker and less skilled.
Feel awful for campbell. I like him a lot and that Haney fight couldve been a real 50/50. Can't help but feel like the wbc missed one here by not making the winner of those two go up against Loma, but maybe the timing was right for it
Nathan Rodriguez
Poor Campbell
Angel Gutierrez
Foreman won the story of the fight
Angel Robinson
Why would anyone wanna see that now anyway. Its confirmed Garcia is a BUM. Lomachenko should dismiss him.
Aaron Bennett
Mikey is no bum just too small for Spencey
Kevin Gray
>only few matches matter Cassius Clay had a record of 61-5 Ali fought only during his prime. He took so many hits during his career that he had to stop.
George Foreman has a record of 81-5 Foreman also fought and beat many excellent boxers in the 70's during his prime. Foreman also made a comeback and fought many young and talented boxers using mainly his superb skill in boxing but also his great strength that he still had when he was over 40.
Ali beating Foreman was just luck. Foreman proved during his career that he always had excellent skill in boxing, he just had a bad day in Zaire. The man boxed in 4 decades and adapted to counter many different boxing styles. He was a technical master and a physical beast.
Joshua Stewart
wrong. garcia flushed his career with his ducking
Thomas Ward
maybe they wanted to screw over Hearn
Jayden Lee
>Ali beating Foreman was just luck. Lmao Foremancucks get more and more pathetic by the day.
Colton Perez
lol casual
Ian Russell
Yes calling a four division champion a bum is a casual position
Jose Taylor
What are the best boxing podcasts I should listen to? I'm already listening to Frampton's and Atlas's anyway and those are pretty based
he didn't really fight anybody and when he finally stepped up he ran around the ring and raised his hand after every round happy that he was 'surviving' lol.
Christian Stewart
jumping weight classes to pick off weak champions puts you at the same level as Broner and Ricky Burns
Jack Foster
>Ali 61-5 Was great during his prime. Didn't know when to retire and got BTFO by Larry Holmes so badly did he got Parkinson's from it. No grill.
>Foreman 81-5 Was very good during his prime. Retired gracefully and made an inspirational comeback. A true American hero. Great grill.
Nope. Arum screwed him over and wouldn't let Walters fight ever again unless he took the lowball offer to fight Loma. This is the same kind of thing that had Mayweather, Pacquiao, and Mikey leaving the kike, he manipulates and rips off his fighters.
The Walters that showed up to fight Loma had already mentally checked out. He was there for his 300k and ready to leave.
Michael Rogers
lmao, this is next level excuse making
Luke Jenkins
Sometimes losing a fight makes a fighter more willing to take harder fights which can lead to more money. Porter lost his 0 and was willing to fight anybody. Garcia lost his 0 and he cherry picked less.
John Sullivan
It's not an excuse, it's a fact. You'll be saying the same thing once Arum inevitably screws over Loma.
Luis Hernandez
Nah man. Both Walters and Rigo were calling out Lomachenko then when they got their wish they got outclassed. Loma fought them both when they were considered 'boogeymen'. Now of course, its Arums fault. *eyeroll*
Connor Lewis
I never mentioned Rigo, dummy. It's a verifiable FACT that Walters got shelved for a year because he refused Arum's lowball for him to fight Lomachenko.
Bob Arum beat Walters, not Lomachenko.
Lincoln Adams
shouldn't you be shopping for women's clothing?
Logan Morgan
Yeah whatever you say. Walters never stood a chance.
Liam Hill
Then there's some who don't know when it's time to quit
I believe in an interview he said he thought Bellew was out and was going to try and remove his mouth piece until he started getting up
Nathaniel Kelly
>3 titles at 154 >3 titles at 160 >1* title at 168
Hard to argue that Canelo isn't #1 P4P. One of the best resume of all active fighters as well. The only thing that can top him is if Usyk manages to grab multiple belts at HW. And even then he'd have to beat 2 of the top 3 HWs.
Nicholas Baker
>Why yes, I do think Crawford is p4p #1, how did you know?
let's be serious for a moment. don't get in your feelings or shitpost for autistic purposes when answering this question. Floyd was an incredible defensive boxer, probably the best we have ever seen on a technical level. is he a top 5 all-time p4p talent?
Walters was considered a "boogeyman" but anyone with any knowledge knew the guy was a chump. He was rehydrating as fuck. At the end of the day he just fought some bums and then finally fought real competition and checked it Bc he knew he wasn't on the same level as top fighters and that his weight and power advantage wouldn't carry over to a heavier weight division.
2010-2016 saw the rise of a lot of fucking bums. Walters, Danny Garcia, Leo Santa Cruz, Alvarado, Rios, Thurman, the list goes on and on
Jack Williams
The titles at 154 were literally handed to him. He ducked GGG during his prime and got two controversial decisions when they finally did fight. The title at 68 is a joke and reveals your superficial understanding.
Dominic Sullivan
I don't rank protected steroid cheats
he should have min of 4 losses and also be banned for being a drug user
Anthony Robinson
good take man
agree although I think d garcia was good at 140
Joshua Lee
In no particular order I think it's something like Chavez Finite Lopez Salvador Sanchez Juan Manuel Marquez Marco Antoine Barrera Carlos zarate Ruben olivares Vicente Saldivar Erik morales? Miguel canto Canelo Alvarez(now according to Jcc)
Cameron Cox
Good overall post, especially about most of those guys being bums, but Walters was pretty good. He was strong af for the division, but Loma made him look like he makes everyone else look. Its not really his fault.
Joseph Kelly
why would you respond to that clown? he's the worst tripfag on Yea Forums. just a super lonely sperg, maybe a faggot or tranny, looking for attention. ignore him and he'll eventually fuck off and/or khs
William Foster
Top Rank requested Lomachenko, Campbell vs Haney would have been a more interesting fight and fucks Haney over as well if he's supposed to fight Teofimo Lopez with no belt but maybe they anticipate he'll fight Commey instead. With Eddie having to concede this it probably does mean they'll get Ramirez vs Hooker in return
Lincoln Murphy
his stupidity triggered me and I couldn't control my primitive impulses
Chase Cruz
Rafael Herrera.
beat Olivares twice
Connor Garcia
Wbc going full tournament mode is the best thing that could've happened to 135. Why are people crying about it?
I mean, he has to, but he fights Commey next followed by either López or Haney. Not bad way to clean out 135, then he wnays to go down and clean 130 or fight Mikey at 140. I'm satisfied.
Eli Richardson
i love lopez vs fortuna, it should tell us if lopez is the real deal or not
lopez's entire career has been against all literally who nobodies, and fortuna has fought a couple champions and even almost beat easter
Leo Walker
I don't think those fights will happen like that. Teofimo Lopez may just fight Commey for the IBF then they meet afterwards, the WBC ordered it but doesn't mean it's happening. Campbell vs Haney was a better fight but maybe a combination of them thinking it was too soon for Haney and wanting the belt on Loma
Joseph Moore
>Why are people crying about it? Because it's bullshit to mandate a vacant belt be fought for by another organization's champion. Ironically though, the same people bitching about this, were eerily quiet when the WBA ignored the fact that Luis Ortiz was the #1 WBA ranked Heavyweight when they mandated the then IBF champion (Joshua) fight the #2 WBA ranked Heavyweight Klitschko for the vacant WBA title.
It's just Hearn's own tricks backfiring on him, and instead being used by Ol' Bob Arum
Justin Ward
There is so much fucking bullshit that goes on with belts that all I care about is fights happening, specifically top rated fighters and unification fights should be happening more often. Allowing Loma to unify and giving both prospects a chance to challenge if they want to, is a good thing in my eyes. Is Loma supposed to rank up through every single belt? How tf is he gonna do that while fighting 3 mandatories a year for the last belt? In order for there to be an undisputed champion these fights need to happen. It would be awful if Haney snatched the belt on a snooze fest against Campbell and then refused to fight Loma for 5 years. Fuck that. The one guy willing to fight any champ is the one who should he fighting for belts. Belt kidnapping is awful for boxing.
Cooper Bennett
I agree all of those fights aren't gonna happen, but at least one of them is. Either Haney or López is gonna accept that and go for the belt. The other one might try to go through Commey route or move up in weight altogether.
Luke Evans
>It's just Hearn's own tricks backfiring on him What tricks? He made a request for the number 1 to fight the next available opponent and they chose a different champion, that's all there is to it. WBA have nothing to do with it but shithouse Ortiz was lucky because he had just gone 12 rounds with Malik Scott, that's what happens when he's clean
Sebastian Ortiz
He's the one who set a precedent for this with Joshua-Klitschko. If not for that, this would be the first time in history a sanctioning body has ordered a vacant belt be fought for by another champion.
>Ortiz was lucky because he had just gone 12 rounds with Malik Scott Is that supposed to be a rebuttal? The point still stands that the WBA and Hearn cheated him out of a belt despite him being ranked #1 in their organization and Klitschko being #2, with Joshua being unranked.
Julian Garcia
If I was Haney I would hold off 2 years he's 20, Lopez without a belt doesn't make sense
Julian Myers
Joshua was unranked because he was IBF champion and champions aren't ranked by other bodies, Ortiz had already left Matchroom to pursue the WBC belt and the winner of Joshua/Klitschko had to fight the IBF mandatory next. Ortiz then failed a drug test and was removed the WBA rankings
David Long
Holy shit, a legitimate Matchroom shill.
>Ortiz had already left Matchroom to pursue the WBC belt No the fuck he didn't. He was with Matchroom until AFTER Joshua-Klitschko happen, because Hearn and the WBA screwed him out of the WBA title shot despite him being #1 ranked.
>Joshua was unranked because he was IBF champion and champions aren't ranked by other bodies That's the point i'm making you mongoloid. Champions from other orgs are unranked by other orgs, meaning they never get a shot at vacant titles and only fight other champions when other champions want to fight them, which is what Hearn is currently pissed about regarding Lomachenko-Campbell, despite the fact that he pulled this exact trick with Joshua-Klitschko.
Hunter Lee
teofimo lopez sitting ringside at loma-crolla and looking at his phone the whole time is very machiavellian
>Hearn and the WBA screwed him out of the WBA title shot Except they didn't because it was the IBF champion agreeing a voluntary fight he had no obligation to fight Ortiz, the WBA later sanctioned it and Ortiz remained in the rankings due after Pulev until he failed a drug test
Juan Gray
ben davidson is a future hall of famer, good decision by saunders to link up with him again
Bentley Ross
Too early to say how he will do, he's good at motivating people it seems but the criticism Roach had was saying the same things to Isaac Lowe as Tyson Fury. Who knows when Saunders will be in a big fight to prove himself
Kayden Roberts
>Ortiz joined Haymon in March, Joshua fought Klitschko April 29 Doesn't change my point at all, given they made Joshua-Klitschko way before he left Matchroom. And regardless of his promoter, he was the #1 ranked WBA Heavyweight and they went ahead and made Joshua-Klitschko for the WBA title.
>Except they didn't because it was the IBF champion agreeing a voluntary fight he had no obligation to fight Ortiz Jesus christ this fucking Matchroom shill spin. The IBF champion didn't JUST agree to a voluntary, he was made into the WBA champion despite being unranked in their organization. It's the same thing that's happening with Lomachenko-Campbell. Ortiz was the #1 WBA Heavyweight until well after Joshua-Klitschko was made and eventually fought.
Michael Evans
Don't forget P4P King Terence Bud Crawford.
Julian Kelly

Shit fight anyway who cares. Might get Usyk an actual heavyweight this time.

Grayson James
Teofimo is fighting a Jap
Caleb Brooks
This is the sort of shit we need. One champ recognised in the division and the boxing organisations setting up eliminators for his title. The best vs the best.
Was Allen-Browne the best heavyweight fight of 2019 so far? And we're almost halfway through
Jackson Lewis
Masayoshi Nakatani he's next in line with the IBF and the winner will fight Commey, so the WBC tournament will never get going because Bob will turn to Lomachenko vs Lopez. Haney will go off and do something else
Hudson Hall
