Really disappointed in Hooker for going back on his word. He said he would be in the WBSS, fighting the best in the division. Instead, he's fighting an irrelevant club fighter. What is a man whose word doesn't mean anything?

>>Just about every man on earth, unfortunately.

So I assume that means Hooker won't be part of the WBSS Tourney? That's a shame! Hooker could make a bigger statement by winning that Tournament!

Pretty sure Arum forced the mandatory on Hooker. Making Hooker chose between fighting the mando or get stripped for entering the tournament and not facing Saucedo. He did the opposite when it came Prograis/Ramirez. Arum was willing to delay the fight and purse bid as long as he knowing Prograis wanted in the tournament.

This is all Bob. Force the strip or enter the tourney. Hooker has a better shot going for the Two top rank punching bags, then winning the tourney

Hooker's a little *****, man. He said he'd enter the tournament. Who cares if he's stripped of the title? He'd be getting the chance to prove he's the best in the division. Plus, there is at least one world title on offer.

He just wants easy fights.

It doesn't even say Hooker isn't entering the tournament but you guys already have crybaby conspiracy theories. Plus Hooker ain't winning anyway. He lost to Darleys Perez.

I look for all kinds of drama with Hearn involved.
