There is one other issue at play here, and that is what the IBF is going to do. Technically, the mando is still due, and if Johnson "isnt available" then per the rules GGG must start going down the list of available contenders until someone says yes. The other option would be if the IBF grants Johnson an extension, so he doesnt lose his spot. With #2 vacant, they might, but I guess we have to wait to hear it from Lindsey Tucker.

Wade (IBF #3) is a Haymon fighter, so we can infer how likely that match-up is.

I'm thinking back to Devon Alexander/Kell Brook. Brook was injured multiple times and never lost his spot.

Didn't Bieterbiev lose his IBF spot due to injury?
