Comments Thread For: Janibek Alimkhanuly Seeks New Foe, After Jaime Munguia's Team Declines WBO Title Fight

[Rebelrbg]

"Munguia previously had an opportunity to face Charlo, as he was—and still remains—the number one contender. A deal was seemingly in place for a June 18 Showtime headliner in Charlo’s hometown of Houston, Texas, only for talks to collapse at the eleventh hour upon the insistence of Zanfer and Golden Boy for DAZN—with whom Golden Boy as a long-term output deal—to be involved in the event."

I guess they can go back to the drawing board, but Charlo vs. Munguia is not as big as Tank vs. KingRy, so I don't see PBC allowing DAZN a cut of that fight. On top of that, technically Adames is the next man up for Charlo! If i'm Munguia, I'm screaming on GBP to get me Charlo come hell or high water, before Adames winds up beating him, or Charlo goes to 168!

C'mon, Adames is not beating Charlo. At least see how he looks in February after the long layoff, but the Charlo prior to that is levels above Adames.

Who turns down a world title, Dazn should drop him no more tune up fights. Why have they done this to him, he took a world title fight before on short notice.

this is the fist time ️ n history a world champion gives up title to fight in higher weight class and does not want to be a champion again yet will fight bums his trainer was not like and his promoter fought tthe best

When it was Pbc doing this at 168 it was said they were avoiding each other to hit the Canelo sweepstakes. Now Mungia is doing it to hit the 3G sweepstakes

The number of belts has diluted the meaning.

Absolutely but getting a belt other opportunities opens up and for most even more lucrative ones.

Many of those so called "stars" are really afraid to fight Kazakh or Russian boxers...Why?

Afraid to fight Russian boxers? Someone forgot to tell that Subriel Matais.

I don't know whether to express disgust for Mungia ducking Alimkhanuly or amazement that Lara is still fighting. Guess I'll do both.

I'm surprised that Munguia doesn't duck his own sparring partners.

So what Floyd ducked Margarito. Bob was going to give him an L. Tank ducked Haney Loma and Taylor. Keep it consistent

What does that even have to do with this thread? Floyd and Margarito been retired long long ago. I thought people would stop bringing up Mayweather up at this point.

Mayweather has beaten more champions than Munguia has met in person. Not even a comparison.
