Maybe I'm not following you, but how do 'conditions' apply with this? They tried to force Fury to fight a chump change fight vs a Klit rematch. What idiot would've went along with that?
Sometimes strict rules burn a reputation. IBF made themselves look petty and ridiculous to the vast majority of the boxing public with trying to force Fury to follow their rules or lose their belt. Just like there being more than one BHOFs, at least 7 sanctioning bodies, different weigh in rules from different sanctioning bodies etc etc. And IBF breaks their own rules now and then. You can be an IBF fan all you want. But I don't see it. They're certainly nothing special in the big picture... certainly no better than the others.
