We now know that Rahman's still a contender, Meehan's a pretender, Brewster's a ridiculous champion who will not hold the belt very much longer, Holyfield's done, McCline bought himself some more time in the top of the ranks, Golota still needs a major win before another shot

So, yeah, it sorted things out a little bit. But until champions fight champions, all it does is change the pecking order for alphabet title shots.

Where does King get that Rahman is now Vitali's mandatory? Boxrec has it listed for the IBF #2 spot, and I thought that Beck/Barrett vs. Toney was for the #1 WBC spot.

I was thinking that this fight had WBO and WBA implications. Then Michael Buffer announced it as a WBC/IBF eliminator. That covers the big 4...
