    Comments Thread For: IBF Rules Tony Yoka Ineligible For Title Eliminator, New Opponent Sought For Hrgovic

    The search continues to find an available ranked heavyweight challenger for Filip Hrgovic. Hopes of matching the unbeaten Croatian with former amateur rival Tony Yoka in a final title eliminator were thwarted late Thursday evening. The IBF ruled in favor of an appeal filed by Martin Bakole, who less than 48 hours prior successfully argued that he is still owed a fight with Yoka which leaves the unbeaten Frenchman ineligible to enter an agreement with any other opponent.

    That’s a shi77er! Joe Joyce is a great match up, if not it’ll be interesting to see if Murat Gassiev steps up.

              I'm hoping Joyce takes this fight. It would be thunderous shots in the arena if he does. Not to mention Joyce becoming mandatory for 2 different bodies puts him in a great spot for a title shot eventually.

                Bakole and his people are a bunch of @$$holes. They could have let this go through and petitioned to fight the winner.

                  Dubois isn't ranked with the IBF and is after Bryan for the WBA slot.

                    That would be an excellent choice! I hope it happens! Starting to feel sorry for Hrgovic!
