Comments Thread For: Errol Spence-Leonard Bundu Title Eliminator Ordered By IBF

[1hourRun]

I don't see Bundu beating Spence, not even with a lucky punch. I know unifications trump mandatories but isn't Spence the mandatory for both the IBF and WBO? So technically Spence gets the winner of Brook vs. Vargas no matter which one wins. Garcia, Porter, and Thurman, I could see all of them refusing to unify with Brook or Vargas so that Spence is guaranteed a title shot. That way all WW unifications after that point are in house PBC fights. I guess you can tell I don't think Brook or Vargas beat Spence either. To me this is going to be interesting how this all plays out with regards to the WBO & IBF straps. I hope Brook or Vargas faces Spence and neither vacates. I believe Spence is the goods but he still needs the upper level WW's to prove his abilities.

No he loses his rating if he becomes a champion with the other organization as they (sanctioning bodies) do not rank champions. If Spence want to unify he would have to negotiate...doubtful at this stage of his career other title-list would want him to make a few defense to solidify a legitimatize draw.

I would love to know how the IBF calculates their ranking system. You will quite often find dudes nobody ever heard of in there. WBO does the same thing.

They just pick names out of a hat.

pointless.90% of boxing sucks.

LOL alphabet groups.

How did Peterson pass on this fight? I thought he was ranked up there & if all else failed he'd be the guy.

bundu? really? come on, that's a step down from algieri

algieri never beat a top welterweight, nor has bundu

at least bundu is a career welterweight and actually BEAT recognizable fighters like Frankie Gavin, Rafał Jackiewicz, Lee Purdy and he lost to and fought thurman


algieri literally did nothing at 147 besides takes losses

since when did being a champion mean you have to fight anyone, brook just learning from bum squad s'all.

Bundu is nearly 42 year's old ffs.
he beat frankie gavin doe, so clearly deserves a shot at spence

bingo

Spence just entered the world stage recently. Brook on the other hand has had marginal comp since he beat Porter.
