      They would and they should. The IBF belt is still vacant and they need money someone has to pay sanctioning fees.

        of course Funeka won, and also the IBF loves titleholders from South Africa. I'm expecting they (IBF) do the right thing and reward the belt to Funeka.

          I was hoping for this, Ali was robbed without a doubt.

            Sanction fees were already collected from both fighters for the fight, so whatever the IBF does here it isnt about money.

            Because it is a "judges decision" issue, and not a DQ or something peculiar, really all they can do is order an immediate rematch, which Guzman wont take. So Funeka would most likely fight Rolondo Reyes for the vacant title.

            Other than that, theres not much they can do. Unlike other sanctioning bodies, the IBF does not make up "interim" champions to solve all their problems. The IBF only uses Interim Titles when the champion is unable to fight for an extended period of time due to injury.

                  ... sad but true
                  and there you have it.

                  On the surface, it looks great.

                  "Oh wow, an organization is looking to do the right thing".


                  Then you think about it for a sec,

                  and then you realize its because of the benefit they'll receive.

                  Good call Kball.


                  Like a young hustler once told me, he was about 11,

                  "Gotta get that money".

                    I remember they ordered an immediate rematch of Abraham and Miranda for the IBF middleweight title....it never happened at 160.

                      They should just give the belt to him as no one holds it.
