Comments Thread For: Artur Beterbiev is the latest undisputed champ to be disputed by IBF

[Nightfall]

Alvarez vs Beterbiev i guess

[crixus85]

More fool anyone who take these charlatans seriously, Artur and Usyk are the World champions, Alvarez, refusing to face his top challengers is another matter. The fawning media just don’t call him out!

If Turki has all this money why can't he just buy the IBF, WBO and WBA and call it day ? He's already match making. Might as well act as a governing body and sanction their own champions. Atleast if they create this new belt it will be legit because Turki makes you fight the best regardless of your record.

I can't imagine that any of them would sell . If I had a scam going like the Alphabet Gangsters do , I'd never sell it either. It's almost as good a scam as religion. You provide no service , produce nothing , sell no product , and get a percentage of everyones paychecks.

Both Beterbiev and Usyk learning about this...

I have to laugh. Not so long ago we had a similar topic on IBF always stripping undisputed champions as soon as they collect all belts. To my surprise, many posters were defending IBF as the only principled organisation and could not see a simple "money grab" in action which happens every single time to the point it is now predictable. And just like William Scull once again they picked an obscure, no name fighter that nobody knows anything about. Well done.

Who TF is Michael Eifert?

Scull has been a mandatory for two years, they waited until canelo unified the division, ginger has no intention in fighting his mandatories, not Morrell jr three years waiting, not benavidez two years waiting, and he decided to vacate the IBF (he should have vacated every belt) when they enforce the fight against his other mandatory for two years, Scull. WBC, WBA and WBO still collecting money from the fees they charge ginger for letting him get away with his BS. Has any of you notice that the fighters with a big team behind them avoids the IBF?

Pascal had no business being #1. He came off a two year PED suspension and then beat Meng at 40 years old.

Meng was the #1 contender when Pascal beat him.

Meng was the #1 contender when Pascal beat him.

Meng had no business being #1, he beat a domestic level German fighter for that spot. And Pascal had no business fighting #1 coming off a two year PED suspension and a fight against Badou Jack that the majority of people scored for Jack in the first place.

I understand how the IBF eliminator process works. I'm just saying that none of the fighters they put into those positions deserved to be there. In no universe does a fight between Deines and Meng determine anything of relevance.

Beterbiev is about to be stripped for not fighting the ultimate winner between freaking Eifert, Meng, Deines, and the ghost of Pascal minus his steroids. Instead of Bivol, the Benavidez vs Morrell winner, or Yarde who are the other #1 contenders.

Yeah, I was pissed when Pascal lost, because I was pretty confident he had no business fighting Beterbiev (Same gym) and was just going to take step aside money until he retired/Beter dropped the belt (like Rivas took 3 years of step aside money instead of facing Adonis)

Not sure why the WBC escape?

To be fair, he has created a belt. Usyk and Beterbiev have been seen holding them aloft.

I'm going to assume that both come to the ring in their next fight holding them and are announced as Undisputed Champion.

That would be a statement of intent.

I dont want to come off as a bigot or something like that but I wouldn't want the A4bs controlling all the belts internationally. I don't think one single person or even a group with one common nationality and reilgion holding all the power is a good thing.

Now if they made one belt but it was a international committee of voters from different countries then that's fine.

I seen that undispuundisputed belt but lets be honest it doesn't really change much in the grand scheme.

IBF and WBO would definitely sell. They openly advertise all the time they are in it for the money and the IBF have gotten caught taking bribes.
