MANDO NOTE: This week is the turn of the IBF. And the Mando Challenger is Roberto Duran.
If any World Champion defends against The Number One Contender of their title rankings, their mando title defense will be moved back to its next rotation.

[el_grande_mauro_mina]

A stable war with Tomasino with one of the fights being for the WTF title.

[Crease]

It's the IBF Mando this week. I will update everything once I get back. I've got a new job interview today.

[Crease]

Need to move this callout:

Esteban DeJesus wants Nate Campbell.

[Crease]

A lot to be decided this week. Lots of opportunities for everyone, with the second Prizefighter coming up next week.
There's definitely a bit of something for everyone.

[BigJuicyHog]

Chavez offers a title shot to Buchanan.

Ambers would like to fight for the IBO or WTF title.

[armageto]

Want to see if Ross would be interested in giving Duran a shot at his belt or if Leonard is willing to have a rematch where Duran could earn his belt back?


If anything, Duran is a mando for one belt, just exploring all options for the week.

Also, since Duran is a mando for all belts right now, I'm assuming he could just wait for whatever title shot he wants to?

[Crease]

Yes, feasibly he could... But he would need to keep fighting and winning to maintain his position as the number one contender for all the belts.

This week, only Henry Armstrong is obliged to fight him. But, If you choose not to accept the IBF title fight this week, Henry is allowed to fight an alternative opponent in the IBF rankings and is "let off the hook" as they saying goes.

Then next week, the mando shot moves back to WBC organization again. And whoever their Champion is (either Ross or his TBD opponent is) will be obliged to fight the number one contender.

And so on, and so forth...

[Crease]

People may not have noticed in yet, but there is a brand new thread in the sim, highlighting the exploits of our most successful World Champions thus far. It can be seen here:

[Ezzard]

Blackburn will take the fight and Montgomery would like to try Sammy Angott

Angott is in sir.........

Be prepared to read a horrible RBR!

We'll see what Ross or Leonard offer up this week, or perhaps we will go with Armstrong still.

[Fist of Legend]

Mayweather wants another shot at the WBC title

Marquez will fight anybody who wants it.

[HyacinthusTurnipseed]

Manny Pacquiao calls out Oscar De La Hoya (Crease).

Ted "Kid" Lewis books cpu Jose Alfaro.

[baron_otto]

Corrales wants Langford

Ike Williams calls out De Jesus

[DaveyMac]

Benny Leonard offers a title shot to Ken Buchanan

[el_grande_mauro_mina]

So - Carrasco will defend the title against Battling Nelson and Orlando Romero will have to fight Joe Gans (oww.. )

[Tomasino]

A stable war with Tomasino with one of the fights being for the WTF title.

Sweet, thanks big man

Can Joe Gans fight for the title?

[HyacinthusTurnipseed]

WTF LIGHTWEIGHT BELT (12 rounder)
FAT GIT VS DAVEYMAC
PEDRO CARRASCO VS CALIFORNIA JACKIE WILSON
RESULT: CALIFORNIA JACKIE WILSON SD

From the week 18 results thread FYI.

Also, ranked #19 Manny Pacquiao puts his name out there to fight for the vacant IBO title, against any one of Laguna, Blackburn, Williams, Welsh or Camacho. The De La Hoya call out is still there as well.

[DaveyMac]

So - Carrasco will defend the title against Battling Nelson and Orlando Romero will have to fight Joe Gans (oww.. )

Which title? Carrasco lost to CJ Wilson.

Who is willing to make it a trilogy with one final fight to settle it if you wish.

[Controversial]

Ortiz challenges Hilmer Kenty

[el_grande_mauro_mina]

A stable war with Tomasino with one of the fights being for the WTF title.

Sweet, thanks big man

Can Joe Gans fight for the title?

I think Gans is ranked too highly but if the commish allows it then we can swap opponents for sure.

['Frilla]

Mayweather wants another shot at the WBC title

Marquez will fight anybody who wants it.

Lets do it again. How about we make it a stable war?

['Frilla]

For now we will have to knock the offer back, but we are definitely looking to avenge our early loss to Duran in the near future and hopefully unify 2 titles. Duran and The Boss are the only 2 champions who have successfully defended world titles more than 3 times. So hopefully we meet again for a unification along the track.
