How is Fundora a better win? Reposting things I said without the relevant context is disingenuous at best.
I'm not saying Madrimov is proven, tested, etc. As in, I literally haven't said that. But he's obviously a better win than anyone at 147, because he is a ranked champion in a higher division. If Fundora, Spence, Charlo, and Canelo are all busy, he's literally the next highest ranked champion in a new division. Bud would become a 5 division champion, joining the likes of ATG's Thomas Hearns, Sugar Ray Leonard, Oscar De La Hoya, Floyd Mayweather, and Manny Pacquiao. That's it. That's the whole list. Getting a title at 154 puts him in that company. It's literally history making.
Boots ducked him several times and has the belt that rightfully belongs to Bud that he already won. What I said is fact. If he fought Bud, and Bud won back the belt that was already his that he never lost in the ring, he'd get dismissed as a hypejob by NSB. You know this as well as I do, even if you don't want to be honest with yourself. And I previously listed nearly twenty ranked guys that Boots hasn't fought. You declined to mention that relevant detail.
Madrimov, with a fraction as many fights, has more ranked contenders on his resume than Boots. Which you'd know, if you actually followed boxing. You're just trying to cover your ignorance for not knowing who he is. That's like saying Inoue only has 23 fights so he's not all that, or that Loma couldn't fight, etc.
As for the Bivol fight, I was one of the people that thought people were sleeping on Bivol, and that, given fair judging, he likely ought to be favorite vs Beterbiev. That was a response reframing Bivol's career in the same terms that that dope was framing Spence's career, to demonstrate the inconsistency of the argument, even though I'm on record saying Spence was always overrated. And it's literally factual, to boot. Canelo was a good win, and I'm on record saying so. But it can't make Bivol P4P #1 by itself, which was the point of that thread. But you conveniently left out that context. Two wins, plus Joe Smith Jr, do not make for a P4P #1 over the guys who are ahead of Bivol on every credible list. I doubt you'll find even one list that has Bivol ahead of Bud, Inoue, and Usyk. Most lists don't even have him ahead of Canelo, FFS.
Now you're trying to say it's the fighter, not other relevant details. But that's the whole point. If you had actually been following boxing, you'd know that Madrimov is a good fighter. You'd know his skill set. Have you ever even watched him fight even once? Based on your other posts, I really doubt you have the background to actually assess skills on your own. That's why the rankings are important here. Independent rankings by people who are in the business of assessing boxers indicate that Madrimov is a good fighter at 154. The fact that you don't understand that really says everything. You seem to think that because you don't know who he is because you don't follow boxing, that your ignorant opinion should outweigh the expert opinions of people who do it for a living. It's arrant ******ity. Go watch some tape and educate yourself. Maybe go take a class so you at least can have a beginner's understanding. And take some classes on reading too, because your comprehension sucks.Comment

Oh I thought he'll be fighting the winner of the Tzsyu vs Fundora fight and everyone was nodding in approval. What the heck happened? Isn't he supposed to wait around some more for Fundora? It is that ******, isn't it?Comment

what great timing it could be for the uzbek, if he can put in a performance v bud even if he loses, if the saudis are interested he will get paid very well for giving bud a foothold in a new division, lots of other options have closed for bud & time is ticking for him too, he needs to stay activeComment
