Mark de Mori Vs John Napari

[Brute]

Marks opponent has changed, He is now fighting Ibrahim Marshall from Ghana. Napari is in the army and was unable to get leave to fight.
ibrahim is 10-3 8KOs

He is probably safer in the Army.

Obviously before the army got in the way

Mark was going to fight Napari, no 1 rated heavyweight in Ghana, now he is fighting Ibrahim Marshall, the no 2 rated heavyweight in Ghana.

Marshall has a 10-3 (8kos) record but there is a strong smell of fish about it.

no different than the rest of boxing.

Have a look at the number of his "fights" with question marks. That makes it doubtful they happened.

[buster007]

well most boxers records r padded with terrible opponents even when their records r proven to be correct.

so once again its barely different to the opponents who do not have a verified resume.

[Brute]

I think you have missed the point. Some years ago a "Thai Heavyweight " named Ramba Sisianbah went into a fight with Kim Heta with a supposed 9-2 record, all question marks. He later fought Bowie Tupou. He got smashed in both fights. Turned out he had not fought before fighting Heta. Some ruthless agent made up his record to make some money against two fairly experienced fighters.

He could have been killed.

Something worse happened in 1975 when the WBC stripped their first Light Flyweight champion, Franco Udella of his title for refusing to defend it against Rafael Lovera. Lovera was thrown in with tough veteran Luis Estaba, who smacked Lovera around for four rounds with no response. It was only after this debacle that the WBC looked into Lovera's past and found that a nobody had made his debut in a World Title Fight. Estaba was a worthy champion, making 11 successful defences (including Udella), but it made a laughing stock of the WBC. Lovera vanished into fistic history.

i understand what u r saying and i agree, i was just pointing out that the mismatches occur far too often even when the shit fighters record is correct.

[PaddyGold]

[Sweet P]

Last time i heard from Mark, around 2 weeks back he said he will be fighting in the US later this year. Don king has a fight lined up for him. so hopefully it comes through for him.

[ausboxing]

He was trying for Fury fight but didn't work out.

From his Twitter today: "Building my own promotional company, my first fight will be nov, American opponent has said yes just ironing out the details"

[Brute]

Maerk has not fought in two years. I thought he must have retired.
