Comments Thread For: Sergey Kovalev vs. Juergen Braehmer is Ordered By The WBA

[hitking]

seems like the same posters who support certain fighters hope and pray Ward just disappears....amazing

Floyd-Manny all over again. The type you're talking about secretly never wanted that fight to happen. They knew Manny couldn't beat Floyd. It benefited their agenda for the fight not to happen, and keep screaming Floyd was scared. Just like they know GGG can't beat Ward, so they didn't want it to happen. And they know Kovalev is up against it against Ward. So they would rather it not happen.

What's happening here is that someone from Sauerland got in contact with the WBA to remind (or pay) them that Braehmer is the mandatory. They know that Kovalev isn't going give up the big fight with Ward to fight Braehmer, so they'll just force him to vacate the belt. Same thing Kathy Duva did to Tyson Fury. The only difference here is that Braehmer doesn't have to fight someone to become the WBA champion, he gets promoted to WBA Super Champion as soon as the belt is vacated.

Braehmer will end up holding the WBA belt hostage in Germany.

Yes, this is such a high stakes money fight that SOMEONE must've paid the WBA. Are you completely stupid? This isn't Mayweather pacquiao here.

Nah, Ward isn't bitch-made like Lil G.



Because you know its a very good chance that Kov will get embarrassed and you'll be forced to concede that Ward is the best P4P and Lil G's stepdad.

They're pissing themselves. Clicking their ruby slippers together and wishing something happens to Ward. Sorry kids, this has been a long time coming. Warned y'all last year.

The WBA can choose to push back mandatories beyond the normal time period, I would think they would for Ward/Kovalev

then why didn't they ?

they know 100% that Kovalev/Ward is next,

Go f#ck yourself WBA.

I'm really rooting on some of these notable guys to wipe their ass with one of these belts that are throwing out bs fights as mandatory's. At some point a guy will & more will hopefully follow that guys lead cuz this is mfing stupid. Either make some legit non-bs rankings so mandatory fights are legit fights or go f#ck yourself.

I would be Kovalev's biggest fan if he did that.

Fk that belt, Kovalev/Ward is far more important.

Nobody wants to see this fight, Kovalev vs Ward is already on line for november, these scums only want that step aside fee, Kovalev should drop the belt

[mathed]

What is this schit? Forcing this when they should have forced GGG-Jacobs months ago.

[aboutfkntime]

****ing WBA....

so they order the WBA "unified champ" to fight their WBA "world champ".... WTF is this chit and why do they have so many god damn belts in the same division for the same organization... this chit is ridiculous and all about collecting as many sanctioning fees as they can by creating as many belts as they can.

and guess what, the majority of boxing "fans" happily support that

..... well, they must be supporting it if they recognize those interim fights as legitimate championship defences.

Well there goes Ward vs Kovalev in the fall

[Metho_4u]

If Kovalevs side knew about this mando, why would they not have worked it out already? Knowing his biggest fight is coming up.
