Comments Thread For: Tavoris Cloud Eyes Karo Murat With IBF's Recent Ruling
With the news on Monday that the IBF rejected a request from Gabriel Campillo’s camp for an immediate rematch with Tavoris Cloud, both camps now have a clearer view of the future.
Cloud needs to rematch Campillo, preferably in Madrid. How did Murat become his mandatory when Murat got a dodgy draw at home against Campillo and got Ko'd by Cleverly? Although I suppose it would be karma for Cloud to have to fight Murat in Germany.

Why would it be karma? He's willing to fight Murat in Germany because he knows it will pay more. In fact, it will probably pay more than would a rematch with Campillo anywhere in the world.
Yeah, right. Tell me you never bought off the judges either.
You have Don King watching one of his few money-making fighters going down in flames and not step in with a sizable payoff. Probably did it before the fight, come to think of it.
Boxing is ****. It's closer to wrestling when these kind of decisions show that results are cooked up beforehand.

I think he said it because he has less of a chance of getting a bull**** decision (like the Campillo fight) to go his way in Germany.
He should rematch Campillo, no doubt! He clearly lost the fight IMO and should prove to everyone that he can beat him. This is the part of boxing that I hate.

Nothing to do with pay dude. Point is after judges gave Cloud a win in a fight he lost in the U.S., he would have to fight in somebody else's home (Germany) against a fighter (Murat) who has been helped by hometown scoring in the past. Losing a decision there would be Karma.
IMO if he's willing to fight in somebody's back yard, he ought to go to Madrid and rematch Campillo. Of course it won't happen because A) He'd definitely lose and B) there is more money to be made beating Murat in Germany
