Comments Thread For: IBF: Indongo Must Face Lipinets Next, No Crawford Unification

Wack.......

While just about everyone seem to be clamoring for TC v Julius, I hope TC is not looking past Felix Diaz.
Anybody who thinks that is going to be a cake walk is in for a rude awakening.

The mandatory is overdue. Indongo was allowed to delay the mandatory so he could unify. Now he must face his mandatory. He can't sign for another unification right now because Crawford isn't available. You can't duck your mandatory because you're waiting to see if it's possible to unify later on.

These mandatory fighters have rights. They've won eliminators. They're not going to sit around waiting forever.

Wanting to face another champion and a superior boxer is not "ducking".

that other champion is unavailable. the IBF does allow a unification to take priority over a mandatory, which is why a unification just took place.

but it has to be a unification you can actually sign and schedule. not a hypothetical unification you might try to sign later if the champion retains a month from now, doesn't get hurt, etc.

it's mandatory time and then you can unify after.
