      There wasnt anything funny about why Mike wasnt made the mandatory challenger for Molitor. When he fought the 'eliminator' that was for the No. 2 spot - not the No. 1 spot.

      So Mike was installed as No. 2. The IBF's rules are that if you fight for No. 2 - you still then have to fight for No. 1.

      Obviously, these arent cemented as I'm sure they have 'forgotten' these rules in the past - but I told them to Richie before Mike's fight for the No. 2 spot. Neither he nor the opponent were rated high enough to fight for No. 1.

      And the thing about Molitor making the opponents go up to Casino Rama ... you will make a lot more money fighting up there than you would if Richie brought a title fight to Mohegan or Foxwoods.

      Molitor sells probably 10 times as many tickets as Mike does.

          I don't care who sells more tickets etc etc. That shouldnt have anything to do with anything, really. Not when the world championship is on the line. The sanctioning bodies should have more control over their titles. And the IBF's rules leave quite a bit to be desired, no? Paying for TWO fights, paying for ANY fight is not really making sense to me. We fought for the #2 spot... wouldnt it be assumed that we would be in one of the spots when it came time to be picking the two guys to fight for#1? Why would we pay to fightfor #2 anyway? If you are number 2..but ther eis no number 1...doesnt that make YOU number 1?? This game is crazy, man.
