    Why have IBF not stripped him if that is what they claimed. Why make the limit and pay a fee if the ibf title won't be on the line

      Spray_resistant Parker's Cousin Buff Guy Jai isn't as buff as I thought. So if it's for undisputed Top Soviet Bivol would be fighting a 210 to 215 pound buff guy

      Buff Guy Jai would have a 15 to 25 pound weight advantage on fight night against Top Soviet who would buff up to 190 to 195

      Jai Opetaia remained true to his word and committed to the second-day rehydration weight check, although it was no longer required under the current terms of Sunday’s main event.

      The lineal and RING cruiserweight champion tipped the scales at 210.6lbs, well under the maximum 214lbs limit in accordance with IBF’s rehydration rules for title fights and final eliminators.​

      Per IBF rules, sanctioned cruiserweight fights carry a 14lbs rehydration max for the second-day weigh-in. A 10lbs cap is applied to fights at junior welterweight all the way down to strawweight.

        Top Soviet was outweighed by Fat Zurdo too and outboxed him easily, he took some hard shots against Buff Russian Beterbiev so I'm going to say he has a good chin and can do this.

          Fat Gilbert is a fat astard who rehydrated back up 30 pounds so 205 when Top Soviet Bivol 9-3 mopped that overstuffed burrito

          dude so fat that Top Soviet's shots were just bouncing off like a bobblehead

            So from what I can see IBF have not stripped him. Still showing as champion on their website and no official announcement that it is vacant unless I missed it
