    This is not a problem at all. They are just asking for a little bribe money to shut up and go away. Promoters will fix this in a heart beat.

      You can't give a voluntary to someone ranked outside of the top 15.

      I'm shocked so many people are ****ting on the WBO for this. The WBC is the joke for handing a ranking to someone who's been out of the ring for 2 years and never fought at the weight to begin with.

        All the while everyone thought Bud truly wanted this Fundora fight. Fans say it's an easy fight.

          Like it or not, Spence is ranked #1 by the WBC. Therefore, he can fight Spence if the WBC sanctions the fight.

          IMO, Spence was already a shot fighter when he fought Crawford. That is why I called the fight an easy win for Crawford before the fight, while many were calling it a 50/50 fight.

            This right here. All they are asking is for someone to grease the wheels a bit.

              It's a bad fight. Nothing organic about this fight, it will just appear on TV and there you go.

              I guess I'm kinda sour because I like Spence, but I think it's a wrap. I think it's a terrible matchup for him. I don't want to see him get beat up again and I think he will in for a tough time from here on.


              Charlo being taken off the table is tough for this division. Hated the ideaof Charlo-Canelo and how it basically killed Crawford-charlo. Charlo-Canelo got announced the week of TC-Spence.

                How long did Charlo sit on his WBO belt, inactive, never stripped? How long has Canelo gone without a mandatory? But Fundora may get immediately busted?

                Who cares. That would mean one less sanctioning fee, more money in your pocket for a fight that will do the same amount of business.

                  The fact that Spence is ranked #1 by the WBC is just a sign of corruption- he is coming of a brutal beat down by Crawford and has never fought at 154

                    WBO was the first to strip Charlo, actually.

                      Maybe Fundora can get One Time out of the old folks home. He was good until his artheritis flared up.
