Comments Thread For: Team Usyk Demand WBO Enforce Mandatory Joshua Title Shot

[Born X Raised]

I guess if nothing else this post shows you really can spin any damn thing any way you please. Dude demands his title shot and it's because he wants to get a vacant title, huh? So what does it mean if he doesn't demand his title shot?

Don’t be mad at me because Usyk wants to fight for a vacant title like all other Eastern Euro sissies, lmao.

If he wins a Heavyweight title against Joshua I’ll eat my words though.

Been watching boxing almost 30 years and this **** is still fuzzy to me; dont these sanctioning bodies rotate when a champ is unified?

True he can't fight 2 people at the same time, so fight one in 90 days with the winner fighting the other 90 days after that so 2 fights in 180 days, heck Ray Robinson and Jake Lomotta was a total war and they had a rematch a few weeks later, Mike Tyson used 2 fight every 2-3 weeks before he got lazy, the Old Time Fighters would often fight every few weeks, nowadays they fight go on a million talk shows and go on tours for multiple press conferences, skip all that and just fight.

Look at Ray Robinson in February 1943 He loses to LaMotta beats a 47-4 fighter 2 WEEKS Later wins by Majority Decision then fights Lamotta the week after that that means 3 tough fight in February, Joshua did not take a beating he could fight in a week or 2 and be fine 2 fights in 180 days is easily doable, there are enough fighters who want to fight Joshua (Same goes for Canelo) that they could fight as often as the fighters in the olden days, just skip those ****** talk shows where the host's and most of the audience no so little about boxing. https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/9625?&offset=100

I'm not mad at you, man. I'm merely pointing out that folk will believe whatever they want to believe and will fit any set of facts around those beliefs... everyone on here already knows this, but yours was just a shining example.

I mean, since when did a guy demanding his title shot become evidence of his cowardice, man?

What happened to the rotation system that had been in place going back to Klitschko's reign?

[youbeight]

AJ ain’t taking this fight.

IBF will definitely be next, they are very strict. WBO more likely to give Joshua more time.

[Larry the boss]

joshua will fight pulev to keep the ibf. If he was stripped, pulev would fight kownacki for the title and theres no way hearn would allow a title to change hands to arum or haymon.

Joshua will let go of the wbo. Usyk will fight whyte for that title and both are eddie hearn fighters.

Assuming joshua beats pulev, hearn then has another heavyweight title unification. It would either be a uk super fight in joshua-whyte 2... Or joshua-usyk, which would be bigger than originally thought because in this scenario usyk beat a british hero in dillian whyte.

anyone with commonsense knows the route being taken here

As much as I love Usyk, I just don't understand how he can be mandatory after one fight at HW... specially after beating a pas due date Witherspoon.

Usyk is legit. He's better than any of the Heavyweights skill wise, I'd still pick against him because of size.

We’ll know if he’s a legit heavyweight when we see how he handles some real heavyweights rather than a journeyman like Chazz Weatherspoon.

Didn’t really impress me there.
