    Frank Warren generally gets his way with the WBO, they’re indebted to him and Arum.

    Ruiz is #1 in the rankings. Whilst it isn’t worthy of an interim title it’d be a fun fight.
    Ruiz sounds like he'll fight Fury or Wilder next, though. If Sanchez fights Arreola and Joshua fights Whyte, doesn't that leave bum ass Joe Parker as next in line again?

      I think Boxxer want him to go an alternative route.

      I don’t think Sky are too happy with his current progress though.
      Is Clarke's contract expensive? It seems too early to be having so many doubts, unless they paid an arm and leg to get him.

      BOXXER made an offer to Wardley:

        It’s probably expensive for a prospect. Olympian’s come with a premium.

        Feels like a smokescreen to me. Wardley is claiming it’s less than he got for Coffie. We’ll know for sure tomorrow, purse bids always show you the true value of assets.

          If Zhang fights Fury, Ruiz-Joyce becomes plausible I think.

          Dunno what happened with Wilder-Ruiz, both wanting too much money I think.

            I think Ruiz figured he had a shot to get the Fury fight. So why fight Wilder for a shot at Fury when he could just skip the line?

              I thought it was Wilder’s side that were exploring other options as the offer was below expectations, then all this Saudi BS arose about a tournament.

              I might be wrong though, can’t say I’ve followed the HW stuff too closely recently. Far too much talking not enough fighting from the top guys.

              • As we expected Boxxer didn’t make a bid.

                What is disappointing though is they didn’t let Frazer pursue this fight. 258 were pushing for it too.

                Clarke also has to take some responsibility for his own career too.

                • The winner of Barroso-Romero will have 120 days to face Ohara Davies.

                  Genuinely think he can beat both.

                    Fair play to OD, turned it round after a rough few years. Ritson win was impressive in how dominant he was. The WBA is an absolute farce at 140 though. How on earth is Barroso so highly ranked, and Rolly coming off a KO loss at 135.

                      Boxxer having a rough go of it at the minute. They've got the best card on paper May 27th, let's see how it goes.
