Joan Guzman Yanked From Romanov Title Bout By The IBF

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Contrary to reports of a Joan Guzman (29-0, 17KOs) vs. Yuri Romanov (21-2, 14KOs) title bout taking place on May 1 in Las Vegas, BoxingScene.com has been informed that the IBF plans to bypass Guzman due to his administrative suspension in Mississippi. [details]

Thats messed up..... Its the IBF's belt, they made their decision with the issue out there and now they make a 180? Why? Think anyone would have brought this up or it would be a big deal?

I mean none of the other commissions are giving two flicks about Mississippi's suspension, so why should the IBF? I mean the fight was set for Nevada and they said nothing about this.....

I could halfway understand if it were a bigger commission like New York, California, Nevada, New Jersey...... Even Texas or Florida, but Mississippi?

Who cares about Guzbum anyway?

Good, someone finally takes a stand, Guzman does not deserve a title shot.

There's plenty I could say, but I think I'll just sit here and smile. lol

[egreezy]

lets get Peterson, Funeka, Prescott or David Diaz in there then. they don't refuse to fight

[The Hammer]

I hope Romanov will still be able to fight someone else for the title.

I hope Romanov will still be able to fight someone else for the title.

I don't think it should effect Yuri's eligibility.
I would have favored him over Guzman anyway.

I'd like to see Funeka in that role, he makes for good fights. So too does Prescott but he's not seasoned enough. Peterson and Diaz are both kinda lame IMO.
