Should you get a L on your record if you duck a madnatory?

The only punishment a pro athlete respects is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!! Fine him!

Yes, definitely.

It's a very feasible and possible scenario you're talking about.

[E. O. Wilson]

That's actually a wonderful idea. Ducking mandatory=loss by forfeit.

[E. O. Wilson]

Ok just to be clear if Demetrius Andrade's mandatory was Rose but he had an opportunity to fight Canelo does Andrade deserve an L because he skipped Rose for Canelo.

No that's not the same. Usually fighters going up in competition have their mandatory defense delayed/waived, so that wouldn't be a loss.

Not that I think this will ever happen, but it would be cool.

Who is going to be the judge on that you? I am sure that process would be perfect and work out great for every fighter~

[JmH Reborn]

I could respect a L being placed there via forfeit

You can't lose a fight that never happened. Quiilin never even signed for this fight. **** on the guy all you want, he deserves it. But his punishment was losing his title and that was exactly what he deserved.

Floyd would have thousands of losses then. He's ducked every book, newspaper, and signs since he was a child.
