It will happen in the Middle East.

They can create a new belt, called it the " FU WBC" belt and give it to Beterbiev and make him throw his green WBC belt away.

The unification can then happen with all of the belts on the line.

Beterbiev manager seems to have forgotten Smith doe.

This is why a lot of fighters are going to fight in SA. Nobody wants to deal with all the BS politics in the US and Europe.

This is the kind of fight that should be in Saudi Arabia because these dudes deserve big paydays for a fight of this magnitude.

American and European casual fans dont know these guys so the fight would have to be an undercard to a fight.

If Saudi offer huge money for the fight, WBC will drop their objections and take the sanctioning fee in a heartbeat.

That is a great fight at the right time and unfortunately it is not as popular as it should be. If that is were the money is that were they should fight and money most of the time rectifies everything. Hopefully this comes through.

Do we overlook Saudi Arabia sportswashing just so that this fight finally gets made? An interesting moral dilemma.

The only person who doesn't want this fight to happen is Bob Arum! He's using the "Russia" excuse because it's convenient! Who remembers, "Manny is scared of needles," "We need an outdoor stadium," and "Fake contracts?" Bob hates Eddie Hearn, and that's the problem period!

Isn't Beterbiev RUSSIAN and has the WBC belt? How the **** can they not sanction thr fight.
