        The IBF should pay for his surgery, given all the sanctioning fees.

          Props to Jai.

          But I must've missed something. Why was he even fighting this guy? Isn't there somebody better to match against? I'm really asking.

            4 of the TBRB top 10 are tied up in the WBC circle jerk. CBS is building back after the Zurdo beatdown. Zurdo and Jai's schedule has been off due to their mandatories. Hopefully they can get it done before the year is out.

              He cherry picked the absolute worst guy that they could get away with fighting without the IBF stripping him. That's why Squeo got the fight.

              Jai's last three opponents in a row have been total dog crap while Zurdo has lined up Bivol, Smith Jr., Goulamirian, Billam-Smith, and now Dorticos in five straight fights.

                  if you consider you self a real boxing fan instead of a keyboard idiot you would have known that jai was going to fight the number 1 contender huseyin cinkara but he dropped out with an ankle injury and suqeo was the one who took the fight on short notice

                    He had a list of possible names and picked the absolute worst one.

                    Huseyin is also a joke, but that's the IBF's fault and not his.
