Comments Thread For: Golovkin vs. Dereyvanchenko - Vacant IBO Title Also at Stake

[_Rexy_]

It is funny to see a sarcastic bashing of IBO belt... especially when WBA Regular doesn't get such a unified backlash on forum. Even Franchise WBC got less hate while Mayan belt receiver a comparable amount of dirt as IBO just did.

The Mayan belt is just a trophy. No sanctioning fee and it’s not a championship and it still gets a lot of hate.

And the WBA probably gets **** on the most on here, especially since they brought in the Gold belt.

The IBO doesn’t even really get talked about unless it’s mentioned in an article (since Ruiz won at least. Before that you had Hearniacs talking about how Joshua has 4 championships)

Ibo is a joke. funny that instead of having the two top rankd fighters in ibo fight fr the belt they just throw it in this fight like nothing. lol. triple gay will never take a belt from a champion. he did it wt lemiuex which i gv him props but the rest are just thrown at him. total bias. and bad business. canelo gets strippd by wbc and ibf within 1 mnth of winning. yet u hv other champions hold the belt without fightg fr years. canelo is a living legend and he is riskg defeat again. lets all hail our lord and savior Canelo. AAAAmennnn.

I don`t care about IBO belt, but fight is good, because it is between two top 10 middleweights.

Canelo threw it in the trash just like he did with the WBC and IBF.

The diva was going to throw the Franchise Belt in the trash too.
But then he remembered it ain't a belt it'a an honorary title.
Kinda like being the Mexican Ambassador to Lapland. :-)

I like IBF’s 10lb hydrate rule but can’t stand they usually leave the #1 and #2 vacant or I should say “For Sale”

I like their ten pound rule too, but it should probably be a percentage. A bantamweight going up ten pounds is a much bigger difference than a light heavyweight.

I also don’t like how the IBF decided to scrap the rule for unifications either. Maybe if all 4 combined we would have a good set of rules lol

They can fight for my belt while they're at it. $20 sanctioning fee, and it's reversible: brown on one side, black on the other; goes with any outfit. Way more valuable than the IBO belt, trust me.
