    The IBF is such a clown organisation. They still haven't corrected Joseph Parker's name yet.

      I agree.

      People gave deontay hell for fighting duhaupas and Molina but as they proved the other week they were great fighters.

      I like malik he has a lot of skill but deontay finished him, he's not the same now. This is a cherry pick

        Malik Scott is a slick fighter with absolutely ZERO power. He couldn't knock out a featherweight. So perfect first defense as he he can maybe give AJ some rounds without any fear of a KO.

        Let's face it, Stiverne, Jennings, even Molina probably a little too dangerous for a possible KO

          The competition is fierce for worst title defenses. Russell Jr. is defending his title against a guy boxrec ranks 108. Broner just fought a guy ranked 75. Lara has defended his title against 3 unranked boxers since losing to Canelo. Lots of champions are no longer selecting their opponents from the top 10 rated boxers. They are defending against unranked fighters. Every time a hear about a title fight I see where the challenger is ranked if they are ranked at all. It is amazing what bums some champions fight and still have it called a title fight. In the good old days they used to call it a non title fight when the champion fought an unranked fighter. Not anymore. Today almost any guy with a boxing license can fight for a title.

            It won't be Scott after he was butchered today in that presser. He'd take a lot of heat. Eric Molina coming off a win over Ademek and carrying the IBF INT belt into the ring is a sellable fight...at the 02
