Stevenson given more leverage in the situation.

If this dude doesn't put himself up for bids again, he's crazy

Good to hear. I was gonna flip if the IBF made Hopkins fight Scrubchenko

As long as the unification actually goes through, they should be fine. All depends on WBC and Stevenson

Hell yes......

Why does everyone seem to assume that Dudchenko got this already? Given a fair fight I have no problem seeing Mohammedi taking this one.

Dudchenko is OK IMO but nothing special and Mohammedis a game little b#stard if somewhat away from top tier.

Anyways, this should come as no surprise - in fact, if he beats Stevenson I wouldn't be surprised to see BHop drop the IBF belt rather than fight some utterly meaningless opponent for one of his his few remaining fights.

Incidentally, why ya gotta change Dudchenkos name to Scrubchenko when transliteration already s#at all over the guy?
