Boxing craps on itself again thanks to fan tolerance of the alphabet banditos. Hope Yoka gets Bakole in the ring with him and punishes him for this.

yes, the nerve of the IBF to actually follow the rules.

How dare they!!

If it's not Yoka, I'd kinda like to see Gassiev in there. He's 6'3 and about 225 so he's not terribly undersized. You know there'd probably be some fireworks there.

Yep, that is where I am. Of course Joyce will pass. He is already a #1 contender, he will not risk the "L". (Actually the best business decision, just a crap sports decision.) That leaves Gassiev, who at this point of his career has been left completely out of any conversation about top end HW. He has plenty to gain, and needs to get some forward motion.

This is comical at this point. Must be a punchline somewhere for this joke.

IBF rules, bah. I remember sharing a flight with Bobby Lee back in 84'. He was a meticulous dresser, and went on with great enthusiasm about his vision for what the fledgling IBF might do for humanity and the world. This was before his legal troubles. The January 15 date for Bakole's beating has come and gone and has no new date. Not Yoka's fault. Blame Covid, blane Olivier Veran, blame Daryl Peoples and the IBF, I'd simply like to see Yoka take his next step

Martin Bakole getting destroy

[tokon]

So Parker, Ortiz et al will be demoted in the ibf rankings?

All things considered, neither Hrgovic-Joyce nor Hrgovic-Kabayel are bad eliminator fights. The latter looks far more likely

Joyce is already a mando and a hrgovic fight doesnt generate money.
eddie wants zhang as an option for aj. If aj loses to usyk hell just prizefight abroad for big money.
the zhang fight could be huge.

Imo hrgovic should fight babic in croatia. It sells itself like aj vs whyte.

so would I, but Yokas team signed a document specifically saying that the fight was postponed, not cancelled. Thats on THEM
