Comments Thread For: Regis Prograis vs. Julius Indongo: Only One Way Up

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

By Cliff Rold - Even being counted out in his all-belts-on-the-line unification with Terence Crawford last summer, Julius Indongo was a winner. What else can one call a fighter few outside his native Namibia had ever heard of going from anonymous to the Crawford fight in just eight months? Julius Indongo (22-1, 11 KO) won't be able to say he was the undisputed champion at 140 lbs. but he can say he got halfway there, traveled the world, and made some good money along the way.

In little more than a week from now, undefeated US Olympian Jose Ramirez (21-0, 16 KO) will face Amir Imam (21-1, 18 KO) for the vacant WBC title. So, with no one holding a WBC belt in the division, there will be an interim titlist before the title itself is filled? Why not just order a four-man tournament?

I thought Boxinscene is suppose to inquire about these sort of things....cause you know its your jobs?

I’m surprised this fight is barely being talked about here on NSB.

I mean Indongo is coming fresh off of a fight with a guy who some consider P4P king that was a title unification for all 4 belts in a weight class...

...and despite coming off such a big fight, Indongo is still viewed as the underdog here so this is interesting IMO.

I’m really looking forward to this fight. Awesome matchup for a Friday Night card

Fair point. I was more thinking about the absurdity of the situations the sanctioning bodies get in and the promotional divide causes.
