Unless he got the weight cut massively wrong last time then it wouldn't be wise for Janibek to keep fighting at 160.. i get why they'd wanna try stay there because he has two belts but it's not like fighters are lining up to fight him anyway and his name isn't very valuable right now if he's a unified champion at 160 and getting 250k for fights but still saying that if he goes to 168 he's gonna be seen as a who needs him there aswell.. talented fighter but he's stuck between a rock and a hard place right now.

Yeah , that seems really suspect to me. It's too perfect. Usually purse bids are won or lost by many more thousands. It's rare to see bids in increments as small as a thousand dollars. Someone leaked that purse bid .

The 1,000k purse-bid difference is the type of shxt you see on "The Price is Right" game show. The difference is too close to be coincidental. I think Janibek just got fxcked over.

Let this situation be a lesson to Norman and every other boxer who thinks that having a title entitles you to a 7 figure purse. A BELT MEANS NOTHING!

Janibek clearly has to move up to super middleweight.

He might even get the big money Canelo fight, and the middleweight division is very bland now anyway.

As much as i believe he is being avoided like the plague because he is high risk and low reward, I shed no tear for weight bullies. Move up already.
