Comments Thread For: Spence Had Never Even Heard Of Ocampo Before IBF Order

[Kcvtr81]

Ocampo seems to be around forever but he's still 22 hopefully he comes to fight and puts on a good show

Why ruin the kid's career by throwing him in there with Spence, who is clearly a level above the kid as a fighter. A bad KO and he's never the same.

That's why I hate all the boxing organizations because they never rate the other champions. And with all these interim, super and intermediate "champions" whose left to rate? Think about it. If the top ten fighters in a division are "champions" of some some, undyserving guys get a shot.

The IBF should not have ordered Spence vs. Ocampo in January, then made Ugas vs. Robinson a final eliminator in February! Should've just waited until after the final eliminator, and ordered Spence Jr. vs. Ugas! I think that would've been a better fight! In fact, the IBF now has Ugas #2, and Ocampo #3! Go figure?

My point exactly. Why ruin the kid's career by throwing him in there with Spence, who is clearly a level above the kid as a fighter. A bad KO and he's never the same.

These casuals act like Konstantin Ponomarev hasn't pulled out of two eliminators ; one vs. Spence before Errol was a IBF champion then pulled another b*tch move on Ocampo.

How bout make Ocampo vs Ugas?

Does anyone know the fight Ocampo got his mandatory? These things are so f#cking wonky man.

Exactly! Obviously the IBF had Ocampo, Ugas , and Robinson, ranked! The 2 highest should've fought in the eliminator! Is Ocampo better than Ugas and Ray Robinson? I guess we'll find out!

[True That]

I never heard of him also.

I did know who Jaime Munguia was though, I heard about him last year in 2017 that he was a good young prospect.

But I have no idea who Ocampo is and looking at his record I can see why.

Spence fought a washed up 140lb fighter who had a two year layoff in Peterson and now this bum. But you never hear a peep out of the LDBC or a Dontae Boxing because Spence is their great black hope going forward.

But they will be hypocritical by calling out ggg fighting a late substitute because Canelo tried cheating him ...Cowardly ****** hypocrisy.

Umm you do realize Lamont Peterson was holding the WBA interim belt at WW when they fought right? He bested Avanesyan 11 months before fighting Spence Lol btw, Spence was coming off an 8 month layoff after beating Brook

Pulling Vanes up a weight class to fight after a full two year layoff isn't nearly the same thing lol

This was a terrible argument. You can do better.

Right but they'll praise it when he fights Crawford after Jose. Smh

Well the IBF tried to make the Ponomarev v. Ocampo fight, but Ponomarev pulled out of their rankings.

Btw, Ocampo is a Zanfer Promotions fighter right? The company seems to have some serious weight in Mexico. The kid that beat Ali is with the same company. So I wouldn't underestimate that team's interest in having its guys in these championship fights.

IBF rankings are consistently **** leading to crap mandos. Golovkin caught a pile of crap for fighting Wade. Who was Wade - his IBF mandatory.
