IBF is too strict, and the majority of the time their mandatories are trash. The Spence/Brook situation is rare for them.
id rather have them strict and follow their rules then pull some ol foolery like the others

but yes IBF mandos are out there...but if Mell does get stripped or gives up the belt or murtazaliev doesnt accept another step aside, we get murtazaliev vs culcay for the belt

damn guess Arum doesn't run the WBO anymore :mjlit:
I fukk with them forcing this bout cause it's either going to actually force the bout OR force someone to blatantly duck where there will be zero way to juelz by the fanbases
I saw that WBO is changing the split to 60/40 in case of purse bid and at this point i'm hoping it actually goes to that point. For fight not to happen Crawford gonna have to drop the belt which would be a blatant duck or Porter would have to juelz about money which would be a blatant duck if PBC has the chance to pay enough to satisfy him in a purse bid
in the espn report they were saying porter was talking with thurman about a rematch so i hope that's not used to duck. this fight should get made at this point

Bud finally gonna show these welters how you dispose of an average boxer like Shawn porter. The fact that shawn gave all these pbc guys such tough fights is disgusting:scust:....guarantee Shawn won't be as reckless as he was with Errol. If he fights like that he's getting stopped.
Let’s see:mjgrin:

This Porter/Crawford shyt hella weird to me, Porter was at the WBO offices months ago trying to force a fight and nothing came of it. Now the WBO orders the fight months later when Porter was supposedly in the process of finalizing a fight(he said a couple weeks ago on his podcast he was in camp), Crawford saying an elite welterweight is "forced" to fight him like Porter is the champion...this shyt hella weird man.

Idc if it’s weird, if it happens it’s great, no better option out there for either one right now.
