    I've said it before, and I'll say it again.

    Never, ever trust Eddie Hearn. He lies.

        Am i missing something here. I thought all sanctioning bodies made a pact that they would agree that unification fights would be easier to make. That lame ass rankings wont get in the way of Big money fights to help boxing. So fans can recognize who the champions are in each weight class, to grow the sport with younger fans and compete with UFC. Now the WBA is pulling this crap about rankings, the fight might not happened and now it's all Eddie Hearns fault WTF...SMFH.... Sanction the fight WBA get the deal done promoters and give the fans what they want. NOT HARD TO FIGURE OUT.

          Wlad is not ranked by the IBF, Joshua would have to fight someone in the top 15 for a defense of his title. AJ would be dumb to fight Wlad a s a voluntary anyway. The only reason you fight Wlad is if he's a mandatory or there is a belt on the line. You idiots who don't want the WBA to sanction this simply don't want to watch good fights. Nobody is fighting Wlad without the proper reward. He is too dangerous of an opponent to do so

            I wondered when Fury made all his titles available by vacating if this fight would be put in jeopardy. Shame the contacts weren't signed previous to all these titles being up for grabs. Now everything is at risk to be in chaos waiting for contenders to line up for each vacant title shot. It might be another year before the smoke clears and when it does there is a good chance we will have four heavyweight champions. Too bad because the fans are stuck waiting for some kind of order!

              I am so ****ing tired of this.

              2016 was supposed to be the year this type of bull**** was put aside to give the fans great heavyweight fights.

              They told us that once Fury beat Vlad that the division was "reenergized" and there'd be a whole new cast of young hungry fighters who fought everybody & they give us this?

              I mean, has there been 1 great heavyweight fight this year?

              I mean, are we really gonna let Wilder-Szpilka be the ****ing best heavyweight fight of 2016? That was in ****ing January!

              Rant over.

                That fight "happening" seems was a publicity stunt
                These promoters cant be trusted one bit.

                    No-one is surprised this has happened

                    The next stage is to announce an overmatched opponent and claim its not their fault
                    I love this blaming Hearn game

                    Why? he's said from the beginning that Joshua is willing to give up majority of the purse - Even though Joshua is the guy bringing the money to the table. He'll fight Klitschko for the IBF or both IBF and WBA.

                    Klitschko is insisting on fighting for the WBA, even if it means dropping the joshua fight which is totally ridiculous.
