Having a belt doesn’t mean you deserve a big fight.

I could have written this myselfI’m getting sick of seeing fighters demanding big fights when they haven’t beaten anyone.
Just cause you won a vacant title against Walter Katundowka or got a WBC title via email, that doesn’t automatically qualify you for a massive fight.
I’ve seen guys like Haney and Andrade along with their fans claiming they’re avoided. You can’t be avoided if you don’t fight anyone!!!!
Jermall Charlo for example got a gimme WBC belt but he went and defended against Derevyanchenko and now we’d love to see him face Canelo or GGG.
Teofimo Lopez went and iced Richard Commey which made us interested in seeing him fight Lomachenko.
I’m getting sick of seeing guys fight at C/D level then wanting to jump to elite level without proving themselves.
Had to get that off my chest... rant over.
Well said

Maybe I'm lost a bit? I feel like that's the whole reason those boys should be keeping top dogs' names in their mouths.
Belts being splintered takes away from everyone's credibility and the top boys should want to address that.
I really don't give a **** if say 3G beats Derevyanchenko or some such. He needs to fight Andrade or Canelo. Or real, I don't even watch those meaningless tread water fights. Conversely Andrade needs Canelo or 3G, idgaf if he beats Derevyanchenko either. a guy like Derevyanchenko or Jr needs to keep yelling I want Andrade, Canelo, or 3G otherwise I give less ****s. Eubanks can whoop Derevyanchenko, idgaf, he needs Canelo, 3g, and Andrade.
Haney has like 3 fights I'd watch. Fight Teo, Loma, or Davis. That's it, dgaf about him beating up Fortuna or some ****.
Taylor-Ramirez or gtfo, dgaf.
Pac-Spence-Bud, mix it up, or dgaf, **** Ugas.
Charlo needs to get him that WBO
Fury-Joshua, dgaf, still a wilder fan but dgaf.
LHW russians need to do what ****ing obvious as ****...they're both russian ffs.
I mean, I'd watch them. I always end up watching them, but, if Taylor's next opponent is not Ramirez and he fights on a card without another fight to draw me in or fights at an inconvenient time I'll watch that **** way later on YT or some such. Not stressing or buying live fights unless they're uni or undisputed.

If you’re the mando, you earned the title shot.I’m getting sick of seeing fighters demanding big fights when they haven’t beaten anyone.

You didn’t get upset when Loma got a title shot in his 2nd pro fight. He hadn’t beaten anyone of substance, he won an eliminator in his 1st fight.
Now you complain about guys that haven’t defeated elite talent winning an eliminator and earning a title shot, same as Loma did.
Is that really fair?Last edited by The Big Dunn; 12-29-2020, 02:36 PM.Comment

If Canelo chose to face Charlo in 2018 or chose to fight Andrade next I wouldn’t have a problem with it. I’m just sick of fighters acting as if they’re entitled to these big fights when they haven’t beaten anyone. That’s my issue.Comment

I’d give Derevyanchenko much more credibility than Andrade as he’s the guy who’s been in there with GGG, Jacob’s and Charlo and been very competitive in all three.Maybe I'm lost a bit? I feel like that's the whole reason those boys should be keeping top dogs' names in their mouths.

Resume is more important than titles to me. I honestly don’t really care who has the ABC’s these days. They’re so corrupt, and no longer truly reflect who the best fighters are in each weight class. I just look at who beat who these days.Comment
