I think ugly Lebedev still holds the real WBA belt

Kinda sorta. He kept the WBA super belt despite losing to Gassiev in a unification so the Gassiev-Dorticos if for IBF and regular WBA that's good enough for me as being for all four belts.

It seems that your favourite fighter is Crawford and he has already a better legacy than Ward.Imagine if he unifies 147 aswell. A 2 division Undisputed World Champ. I can't recall who was this before.

Holyfield I think.

This could be slightly boring. War Usyk!

Potentially, likely maybe. Breidis brings with him that spoiler style but its absolutely enlightening watching Usyk fight at times.

The fact this tournament creates a new lineal champ by the end of it all deserves credit on that basis alone, the match ups we're beginning to reap now is really something, I'd still like to see Diablo vs Glowacki on undercard of final.

In this instance the WBA regular means more than the Super, boxing at its finest right ?

After usyk wins this tournament he will be on the p4p list and should move up to hw and start schooling everyone there.

i think he should be on the p4p list now..i have him at #2 more impressive wins and performances than most.

i think loma could learn a thing or 20 from usky...stop screwing up his resume by letting bob handpick his fights..usky is a warrior

Bellew wanted nothing to do with these fighting men, cashed out with Haye instead.

He's already said his plan is to unify cruiserweight and move up. With the exception of Joshua it's a pretty trash division so why not try his hand? Look at the Joshua money. Parker getting $12m, even the last dude was supposed to get like $5m so I'd imagine Usyk would get $10m at least. He's going to want a bit of that.
