Matthysse Gets Screwed Again With 141lb Catchweight

[sicko]

might be more of a Promotion Stategy so that the Loser of the fight GBP will still be able to market them as Champions...I really don't matter to me as long as they fight IT DON'T MATTER!

[-PBP-]

"oh belts dont matter but i wanna call gbp out on their ****." big whoop. they all do shady ****. its frikkin boxing. arum is the worse of the lot. but schafer is not much better. they are there to make money. the point here is we are getting great fights. so who really ****ing cares????

I don't get it man. If the tournament goes through as planned there will be one recognized champ at 140 demoting all of the other "champions" to paper status.

If the fights weren't happening, then by all means ***** and complain but there really is no need to at this point.

Matthysse screwed himself. He had to agree to the 141 catchweight, no one forced him to do it. He must have agreed because there's something else in store for him. Or else he could have turned it down and fought at 140 for the IBF title.



Who was it addressed by? Because Lucas himself said it, it must be true? No one gives a damn when Floyd denies being the exaggerated 160lbs on fight night, and claims to be 150lbs instead.

Either he took it or he wasn't going to get a fight. What choice would you make? Same shit when people get on Manny. No one forced them either, but they weren't going to get the fight without conceding on the CW.

Won't say that belts don't have their purpose, but as others have stated, the most important thing is that the fight actually takes place. One pound isn't gonna make much of a difference.

IBF is the one who let Peterson keep their belt when he admitted he had testosterone pellets BEFORE he fought Amir Khan. I don't trust their credibility anymore, especially when it concerns Lamont.

[ShoulderRoll]

Oh, he went there.

Oh dear.

Am I wrong? The idea of a unification fight is to have one of the boxers win all the belts.

What's in it for the promoters if the boxer has to give one of the belts up so that a competitor can pick it up?

Goes both ways. People on here are no more credible than that guy in the video or the IBF. It's all speculation. We don't know which side wanted this or why. And we won't know unless a reporter presses GBP, the WBC and the IBF for answers.

What's funny is people still actually believe that. They try to push their "he on PEDs" agenda when they bring it up too.

Lol they always bring that **** up. Even after the commission took the pills and tested them themselves.

So we're supposed to believe some dude who's recording his windshield? Yea... no. Ill wait for the WBC or GBP to come out with the official statement.
