well if the issues what fight we want next personally id rather see a new pairing. gvodzy seems pretty good and would be very interstng hmself. and we havent seen that match already and would get to learn more about gvo. we already have plenty on stevenson and badou. and of course govzo mandatory.

crazy that we could go into a 6th year w/o a wbc mando challenger fight having happened. a rematch itself would be fine but considerng it would be yet another none mando fght it just gves another bad appearence for the wbc mandatory system at 175

gvodzy isnt some bogus crappy guy either . he could be even better then badou. thats why he interests me more: we can learn more from him vs adon. give me that over old ground.

He should be stripped if he doesn't fight the interim champ.

That should be priority #1, and the WBC should give a deadline the same way the IBF gave one to Golovkin. Adonis has been getting away with it far too long. Once that fight is over, Badou Jack should get his rematch or titleshot against the champion.

ya agree much rather see steve vs gvozdy and then maybe the winner can face badou. if that leads to gvzody vs badou its actually more interestng then stevenson vs badou again.
