    I read on another site Usyk has asked and been granted special permission to leave Ukraine so he can go train for his fight with AJ
    When I read it I thought they’re would be some backlash towards him
    Imo , be damned if you do , be damned if you don’t

        God moves in a mysterious way his wonders to perform. For a moment there I though Haney would have never gotten his chance of becoming the undisputed lightweight champion of the world.

        Kambosos should have fought Devin Haney from the start after his handshake deal with him. After all, he is the WBC lightweight champion and he has earned that spot. So i guess in the end morality always win!

          What a very low, tacky, and bush-league comment even by your own standards?

            I mean I get the symbolism and all but are you seriously telling me they're going to put these guys on the front lines? I've heard people making cracks about wearing stuff from our new spring collection regarding the fresh fatigues and photo ops and all but I'm not trying to be disrespectful when I ask. What are they actually doing? Wondering if it's a bigger morale boost for his people if Usyk takes more pictures in uniform with a rifle vs beating up Joshua again. Like you said I don't think anyone can fault them either way.
            Well Lomachenko lives within 15 Miles of Odessa, which is Ukraine biggest port city. I believe if they can conquer Mariupol they’ll be in odessa. I may not be 100% accurate on that part as I aren’t no expert.

            Now if we see how Russia have behaved and how poor they’re plans are in Ukraine, it leads us to scenes only comparable to the last World War. No place whatsoever is “safe” in Ukraine right now.

            Usyk and loma are likely bracing themselves for they’re locations to be next. Technically speaking they are already on the front line by just sticking around. They could be handing out humanitarian aid, helping with checkpoints, a whole array of things.

            Nothing against you personally, but the disrespect aimed at them on this site is outright disgusting. half the idiots couldn’t fight in a boxing ring, never mind stick in a death trap whilst being mightily rich and able to get out. That deserves commending from us alone. Lots who mention “photo ops” have never even been close enough to even participating in a “photo op” in a war zone. That tells me everything.

              As a Kambosos fan, I'm pretty happy it's Haney first.

              George can win that fight

                Like you; As a boxing fan I am pretty happy it's Haney first too but not for the reason you mentioned.

                  That's how I see it. I'm sure some idiots will call Usyk a coward if he comes back.

                    What was low or tacky about it? Did Sulaiman not come out and say when Lopez was champ that he should be considered undisputed? Did the same thing with Kambosos. Haney was handed a belt, never beat a champion for it. To me that belt he walks around with is meaningless. He's getting played by the WBC. Sorry if you are offended on Haney's part but just calling it like it is.
