Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia Must Face Richard Commey Next, Says IBF

[Shadoww702]

The IBF told Easter to fight Commey

Commey declined but then accepted the mandatory after Mikey won this weekend.

Better fight than some BS welterweight fight.

I didnt know Commey declined??? I thought the IBF let the fight happen but the winner had to fight an IBF mandatory next?? Kind of same situation as Vanes/GGG. Either then or next....

Commey makes more sense than to get wrecked by Spence in a suicide mission.

and Commey ain't no bum. great fight.

... from the IBF web page I just learned that they already stripped Mikey of his 140 title...

Commey is an aggressive fighter with a lot of heart. Will be a lot of fun to watch.

Well **** the IBF

[ceylon mooney]

yup! If you read the article it states when and why Commey is the mandatory. I dont like it but the IBF is the only organization that sticks to the rules. They gave GGG multiple chances and he chose Vanes so they HAD to strip him.

The IBF is the organization I seem to like more and more each day. It used to be the WBC until they kept coming up with Taco Bell Belts for everyone.

they do stick to their own rules. this mandatory was there before easter-garcia. glad theyre enfrcing it.
