Comments Thread For: Jai Opetaia-Richard Riakporhe IBF Title Fight Ordered After Masternak Abandons Mandatory Title Challenge

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Jai Opetaia has a new ordered challenger for the first defense of his cruiserweight championship reign. BoxingScene.com has confirmed that the IBF has canceled a purse bid hearing previously scheduled for Thursday, after the sanctioning body was informed that Poland's Mateusz Masternak will no longer go forward with his mandatory title challenge. Sydney's Opetaia is now instructed to next face England's Richard Riakporhe, in lieu of a desired unification bout versus recently crowned WBO titlist Chris Billam-Smith.
