Not happening. Had to laugh when i heard the fights likely to go ahead they just needed to agree on paperwork.

Hmmmmm, just like i thought. Someone quoted me yesterday regarding this.

it sounded too good to be true anyway.

I have seen this before many atimes, the Fwank warren era when he would claim someone is fighting his lead fighter, and then blam they can't make the fight because this happened. Hearn is NOT fooling me.

The WBA should definitely sanction this fight with Ortiz given a mandatory shot or something.

I mean, what a joke it would be if instead it'd be something like Ortiz/Scott vs Haye/Browne or some crap.

To be fair, he did say it all the way from the beginning.

Am not even shocked or upset, I dont think AJ should be taking this fight now anyways.

in all fairness, wlads rematch clause is put there so he can have a shot of winning his belts back.. obviously he cant now fight fury, but hes probs not going to fight joshua just for only the IBF belt. I find hearn to be pretty open about these things, he's totally honest about %'s and how he puts on shows, watch some of his in depth iFL interviews.

Why would Klitschko cancel the fight if there's no WBA title? Doesn't make sense, there's still the IBF title.
