If Derevyanchenko is a bum (according to NSB), what's that make Kavaliauskas?

The problem is that they selectively enforce it, that's my point. When's the last time you saw a purse bid put on Manny when he had the belt?

That I can agree with: the WBO is not the IBF (as of late) in matters of ordering mandatories.

WBO doesn't order mandatories. They list them, the fighter chooses to fight them or not. Which is how Bradley got away with not fighting mandos.

Look, I know you guys are all about Bud. But the fact is, he ducked the #1 guy in line for his belt to fight Kavaliauskas. Derevyanchenko has fought two quality opponents at least.

So if he's a bum, what does that make Kavaliauskas? It's a simple question.

Kavaliauskas was the mando. Garcia is listed #1 now because Kavaliauskas lost to Crawford. You're saying that Crawford ducked his future mandatory to fight his mandatory.

No, I'm saying that Crawford already had a chance to fight Garcia BEFORE Kavaliauskas was made mandatory. He ducked it.




Listen carefully to what he's implying. He's implying that Crawford's side wasn't willing to negotiate on the level. Which backs up the statements that Danny turned down the first offer - which was a joke offer. Then Crawford turned right around and handed it to Khan knowing full well it was a cherry pick.

That's a duck, bro.
