Oh so there was a contract for a rematch, like i said? FFS.

Incorrect, it was an illegal contract because the sanctioning body WBA wouldn’t have signed off in it because…..because….. do I need to keep spelling it out for you?

No it wasn't illegal. Which is why Ali had to honour it, FFS you're so dumb.

This clown thinks the WBA makes the laws.

I know you attended public schools so I”ll repost it.

”This was in a second contract, kept secret and not part of the main fight contract. It was phrased as it was because the World Boxing Association did not allow fight contracts with rematch clauses. Gordon B. Davidson, an attorney for the group sponsoring Ali, said, "We felt we would be better advised not to have a guaranteed rematch clause. We felt this was more in the spirit of the WBA rules than a direct rematch which was clearly outlawed." He agreed that it was "subterfuge."^[44]When Ali and Liston signed to fight a rematch, the WBA voted unanimously to strip Ali of the title and drop Liston from its rankings.”. Translation: the WBA considered the contract ILLEGAL outside the terms of the actual contract thus stripping Ali…

Do I need to come over and read this to you? Bobby Boy?

You really are below the spectrum aren’t you?

There was a rematch clause like i said. You think because the WBA rules say they can't have one they didn't. You're so dumb that you don't know WBA rules don't mean **** and the clause was perfectly legal and enforceable..

[Earl-Hickey]

Amazing how the same people had no issue with Mayweather having re match clauses when he was the top dog (bar the manny fight) are criticising Joshua for doing it

the ******ity and bias is unreal

Or the klitschkos having a rematch clause and then a clause that if you win the rematch you have to fight the other brother.

Or Wilder getting 2 rematch es at fury after robbing him then getting trounced.

Yup, definitely below the spectrum. I’m sorry you were born like that.

How is breaking the WBA rules Illegal you clown? All they can do is strip him which they did. The rematch clause existed and was legal, you claimed it didn't, you were wrong, deal with it. The WBC, Ring etc all recognised the rematch. B..b...but the WBA....

The IBF stripped Fury because of a Wlad rematch clause, did that make the clause illegal and didn't exist. Damn so ****ing dumb.

I’m so so sorry. I’m certain your family struggled. I’ll no longer try to explain things to you. Again, accept my apologies sir. You weren’t dealt a good hand in life.
