Comments Thread For: Josh Warrington Vacates IBF Title, Looks To Gary Russell or Xu Can

He can advise him though. Dangling the carrot of “mega fights”.

He’s a massive factor in this decision.

Do you think Josh is ducking Galahad? Kind of looks like he is I reckon.

Ultimately Warrington is the one to make his own decisions. He's an adult. Idk of Warrington is ducking Galahad but not rematching a guy he arguably lost to doesn't look good.

Kid Galahad vs Jazza ****ens for the vacant? Not a good look for Warrington unless he does land a Gary Russell fight.

Oh ****, Gary gotta fight Rey Vargas too.

and Vargas is no joke!! If Gary looses & there is a rematch clause...

Fighters are dumb man, they always get suckered into making these kind of decisions.

I’m a Warrington fan and I just think this is a really dumb decision. The belt was the only thing keeping him relevant IMO. I don’t see him getting fights with GRJ like is being suggested.

Hearn has sold him the dream and he’s bought it. He’s not the first, won’t be the last.

Hearn is shady, no doubt but these are only assumptions.

Speaks to what a shrewd businessman Hearn is. If he was able to get Canelo to buy in to his plans(for the time being), selling
his visionsto everybody else should be a cakewalk. Dropping the belt was definitely head-scratching. We'll see what Hearn got in store for him as time goes on.

Canelo ain’t buying into anyone’s plans, promoters are buying into his.

He’s dangling the carrot of future Canelo paydays and the likes of Hearn are biting at his fingers.

This fight by fight deal tactic by Canelo is really smart IMO.

Warrington vs Can is NOT a megafight. It's just a good fight. Don't be fooled by boxing bull**** spouted by the likes of Eddie Hearn.

Kudos to Warrington. Last thing we need to see is a rematch with Galahad. Good god that fight was ugly. Probably one of the worst fights I ever saw. Galahd needs to go to MMA.

[Kezzer]

Completely understand - must get one of those two matches though otherwise this looks ****** !

Quite obvious from Warrington interviews over a period of time (not just now) that he didn’t want the rematch so I think Eddie will take the wrath for him apparently not wanting it; but in reality It’s assumptions and guessworks from those on here

Frank Warren got Josh a world title in front of a sold out Elland Road.

Eddie Hearn has lost Josh a world title so he can go and fight the WBA regular champ in a “mega fight” in a studio.

Should have stayed with Frank...

Tbh both Hearn and Warren are pure weasels but Warrington is being seriously mismanaged.
