6 Losses? Really? In anything they should've ordered Kondo vs Maurice Hooker in a Eliminator with the winner fighting for that Vacant belt vs Lipinets not just give it to Kondo.

These Belt Organizations are just ALL OVER THE PLACE!

LOL IBF is hilarious.

Looking this guy up he's got a 8 fight win streak going on since losing in 2015 to Ricky Sismundo & 2 of those 8 opponents were making there pro debut & one was 0-1. And 7 of those 8 fights were 8 rounders. I don't think you should even be ranked if you are still fighting 8 rounders.

Bud Crawford chickened out.

Also weird. This guy has fought all 36 of his professional fights at the same venue in Tokyo.
