Duva: The IBF doesn't do step asides

Mohamedi did a step aside for Kovalev/Pascal

Doesn't the IBF have a rule that the new champion can defend a voluntary once inside the first 6 months? I remember it from the Porter-Brook situation, Brook had to wait for the Malignaggi fight.

Compare Duva's promotion of Kovalev, to the poor job Top Rank is doing with the equally talented Oleksandr Gvozdyk and Egor Mekhontsev (and has done in the past with Matvey Korobov).

She's a good promoter.

Compare all the fighters TR has developed to the job Main Events is doing with Kova. No comparison whatsoever. TR is the gold standard when it comes to developing talent.

I can't believe Glazkov is a mandatory after losing to Cunningham smh

Top Rank has about 300 times as much money.

Main Events does better with what they have.

With it's wealth, Top Rank could EASILY do much more for Gvozdyk and Mekhontsev. But they won't.
