IBF gives Ruiz exception to fight AJ. Must fight him by Dec. 7

[KTFOKING]

Why would they strip Ruiz to then have him fight Kownacki????? For the belt they just took away when the purpose of that is to resolve the already rematch clause which is Joshua the guy that would replace Ruiz and then whoever was their mando? Ha

*Pulev vs Kownacki if Ruiz was to drop the belt. Joshua wouldn't be fighting for all the vacant titles or even two of them if Ruiz was to vacate them. That is nonsense. He may get a fight with Usyk ordered for the WBO, but that is about it. Point is, organizations don't care if a fighter breaks their contract for the rematch clause or not. They go on with their business and go with the next two up to fight for the vacant title.

Old news.

Even if Ruiz decides not to show up and they decide to strip him, AJ would be the first in line to fight for 3 of those 4 belts. WBO, WBA and IBO would give him an opportunity to reclaim those belts against Usyk.

Andy should just give him the IBO.

Wlad was moved up to fight AJ for the WBA and IBO belt. They'll allow AJ to do the same. Both WBO and WBA left the number 2 spot unoccupied and they'll gladly move AJ in there.

Once again, why the hell do you continue to bring up the IBO belt? Who cares about that belt? It's irrelevant.

Again, don't doubt Joshua could fight for one of the vacant titles, but he's not fighting for both against Usyk.

It depends when Ruiz would lose them, the sanctioned bodies have signed on to this rematch that's why the IBF is holding out for it to take place. Joshua would get the title fights because a permanent injunctions move would freeze Ruiz from fight ing others , the sanctioned bodies could simply put multiple titles on the line with Joshua.

The entire hypothetical is if Ruiz is stripped of all titles. Of course that may not actually happen, though he for sure gets stripped of the IBF title.

Joshua just wouldn't get automatic shots at the title. I could see him getting a title shot for the WBA or the WBO, but not for both.

Apart from Trevor Bryan who's the WBA Interim Champion, Usyk and AJ are ranked 2 and 3 by the WBA. And Usyk is ranked 1 by WBO.

Both would most likely chuck their belts on the line for AJ to face Usyk. And if WBO isn't interested in it, then it would have to be AJ vs Charr or Bryan for the WBA belt, while Fury and Usyk would fight for the WBO belt. But I don't see Fury taking the Usyk fight tbh.

Ruiz will get stripped , he will have a freeze on him by the court and AJ will fight his belts when he's stripped for not fighting name is , it can be a long process or short one but there's really not much around this.

Joshua has already won two vacated belts on the same night against Klitschko so not sure where your coming up with this stuff.

He won the WBA against Klitschko while already having the IBF title after the Martin fight. Then he won the WBO off Parker. So what exactly are YOU talking about? Please don't tell me you are including the IBO title here. If so, conversation is done.

Don't forget that Joyce is the WBA Gold champion!!!

I could see that scenario where Joshua gets a shot at the WBA title and then Usyk vs Fury for the WBO. Now, unlikely Fury takes it since he has that Wilder fight lined up. In that case it could be Usyk vs........wait for it, Dillian Whyte for the WBO title lol.

Whyte is the WBC interim champion and he's going to be yanked off the rankings of the other governing bodies. And LMAO at Joyce getting a title shot.

Fury won't take the Usyk fight. He's in the sport for bums and money fights. Fury isn't fighting anyone with a pulse that will embarrass unless he's fighting Wilder or AJ.
