Comments Thread For: Fundora Must Fight Crawford Next or Relinquish WBO Belt, Official Says

[famicommander]

these ABC's are so ***ing ******.


OK so they are saying that fundura must fight crawford NEXT , whom:

1. never fought at 154
2. already has a fighting in August, which who knows if he wins or looses yet its in the future
3. being he has a fight in august, that puts him out to March 2025 at the earliest to fight Fundura assuming he wins.



So Fundura is supposed to just sit around on his ass for 9 months until crawford can fight him or he gets stripped? that is ***ing ******.

Fundora got his unified title shot in the first place after getting knocked out in his previous fight, and the guy who knocked him out ended up fighting for an interim belt on Fundora's undercard.

Bohachuk is the only one with the right to complain.

He was supposed to be fighting Fundora for the WBC belt.

Then Thurman got hurt and they let Fundora fight Tszyu for the WBC and WBO belts, even though Fundora got knocked out in his previous fight.

So then Bohachuk had to fight Mendoza, who knocked Fundora out, for the interim belt instead of the full WBC belt.

And now Bohachuk is getting jumped in line for his WBC title shot again, this time by Spence, who got knocked out in his previous fight... at 147... by Crawford.

This shouldn't even be a debate. Canelo/Crawford has no reason to even happen aside from money. Don't know how Spence is even in the convo after the shellacking he took from Crawford and having never establishing himself at 154. He should get himself a tune-up at least before going after the big dogs. Realistically, Fundora should be running it back with Tszyu, but being that Tszyu signed up fo a big one with Ortiz, Crawford is just enforcing his WBO status and is the only real lucrative option in this equation.

This has me loss. Should he sit around until after Crawfords August fight?

Spence's plan is still intact. Nobody gives a sheet about the WBO. Big time PPV in Dallas for the Wbc is worth it! Haymon for the win. SWISH!!!!

I was a big spence fan but this is lame af. Spence gonna get worked by fundora this ain’t gonna end well for him just watch. SWISH

[Bronx2245]

I like how things are shaping up! Spence vs. Fundora and Crawford vs. Madrimov, and Ortiz Jr. vs. Tszyu! 154 has motion!

[bearlion]

Fundora had everything go his way, he's extremely tough fighter but Tszyu is a problem for every fighter at 154. They should strip him because they stripped Tim with judging robbery. Also PBC are lame belt hoarders, take them all.

I hear ya but folks gotta understand the most important thing about PRIZEfighting. Hint: its in the name. It has always been business first boxing second. There is a boxing 'cold war' happening between PBC v TR v DAZN and those companies have to put on the best fights for them to turn a profit. So PBC has to put on a mega PPV event Spence v Fundora in Dallas. Dazn has to put on Virgil v Tszyu. Do you really think either one is going to waste money on Madrimov vs Murtazaliev because they are "next in line" and it's the right thing to do? That fight would have to take place in downtown Uzbekistan and who the fuq would pay for that? Shyte even your boy Hearn doesn't want to pay for a title fight between Haney vs Sandor Martin because he will lose big money on it. C'mon we gotta grow up and think like the big kids if we wanna compete with the other sports. And yes it is plausible that Spence will lose bad. I'm just hoping for a good fight between them!

Sounds really bad when you put it like that. None of these orgs operate consistently, and they sort of make up rules and exceptions as they go along. As frustrating as it is for a fan, imagine being the hardworking fighter who keeps getting a raw deal.

If there were any justice they'd match Bohachuk up with Murtazaliev for a shot at the IBF belt. Because they've jumped him in line for his WBC shot twice now, and who knows if/when the WBC will order the Fundora v Spence winner to face him.

[BustedKnuckles]

Yeah, I saw you say that somewhere else too. I could agree, but is there anybody better for Murtazaliev?
