Braehmer, isn't that the old guy who ducked Calzaghe at 168 and moved up to 175 to fight unknowns in Germany?

I don't understand why they didn't order Braehmer vs Bivol? Bivol is ranked #1/interim champ, Braehmer is the regular champ.
I wonder if they're tryna get some 'step aside' money from Kovalev to go ahead with Ward fight.

They know that Kovalev isn't going give up the big fight with Ward to fight Braehmer, so they'll just force him to vacate the belt. Same thing Kathy Duva did to Tyson Fury. The only difference here is that Braehmer doesn't have to fight someone to become the WBA champion, he gets promoted to WBA Super Champion as soon as the belt is vacated.
Braehmer will end up holding the WBA belt hostage in Germany.

lol the WBA is so full of ****. They know damn well Kovalev vs Ward is planned already and had been for some time, yet with Golovkin vs Jacobs it was "we're not going to get in the way of a Canelo fight" and then nothing.
They know Kovalev isn't going to take this fight so long as Ward is happening.

He may have a way to postpone fighting Kovalev without looking bad.
