Neither of those guys are champion material at all right now. Not a good look for the IBF!!

And a HW belt go back to average fighters.

[Willie_pep1]

Screw the IBF

If Martin loses this weekend does he still get the title opportunity? If not Martin should opt out of his fight coming up just to be safe.

The IBF should have better fighters ranked then there might be a fight , another joke' organization.'

[johnnycontrolet]

What a joke fight, the IBF is so ridiculous

[Eastcoast]

Isn't Martin ineligible because he still has a fight scheduled? By the IBF's own rules it should have moved on to Erkan Teper (a non-Haymon fighter.....)

wow, these guys who hold a belt hostage for 4, 5 years of "special extensions" and fury gets stripped in a week?
