The Cobra WILL NOT be defanged!

If Hunter wins this and then Usyk retires, Hunter is upgraded to WBA champion and thereby enhances Usyk's resume of beaten "champions"

Again with the Pulev?

Come on why is this so difficult? If you can't agree you lose the title and the challenger gets booted out of the rankings for 12 months

Don't worry, they'll just upgrade the Wardley - Huni winner to full 'regular' beltholder if that happens. I think we're stuck with a secondary belt at least until Usyk retires.

Fortunately this is not a real championship.

Absolute garbage fight. Pulev sucks and Hunter has been cherry picking opponents since he pulled out of his fight with Hergovic 3 years ago. With Hunter back in the mix, Din King will be ringside in a wheelchair, with all the hanger on surrounding him. Expect DK to win the purse bid because all Pulev has is an attorney who’s a hustler.

A tournament for a belt that was supposed to be eliminated years ago.

The WBA sucks.

I believe winner must fight Wardley-Huni winner?
