Joshua to Drop WBO belt.

Post by J.P »

Talks for step aside money for Usyk have fallen apart, with Usyk wanting title shot. Match room now lobbying Wbo to get Chisora pushed up rankings for title shot , with AJ to fight winner Sept.

If the wbo moves Chisora up from 14 to 2 the might as well rename the wbo to Hearn boxing organization

Didn't it used to be the Warren boxing organization?

This is what a lot of people predicted, he'll beat Pulev and then reunify vs Usyk

Also Joe Parker is number 2 in the WBO I think, he is with Eddeh too so if I were him I'd be pissed if Eddeh were lobbying for Chisora to get the fight instead of him. Maybe the thought of a potential Parker vs AJ rematch scares Ed lol.

Reminds me of the WBC having an all PBC 6 vs 13 final eliminator.

Wasn’t there threads created a few months ago discussing this very topic?

I seem to recall prior to AJ’s loss to Ruiz Jr, Eddie Hearn suggesting that Joshua will very likely vacate his WBO strap, with fellow Matchroom stablemate Oleksandr Usyk vying for the vacant title, sine they wanted to keep the belt in-house.

AJ was always more likely to fulfil his IBF mandatory defence obligations prior to the WBO’s.

So this is all old news.

At least it wasn't for the vacant belt.
But yes that was bad too

Chisora is #9 if he can get him pushed up to #6. He will get the fight

2-Parker fighting in Feb
3- Kownacki fighting in mar
4-Ruiz ?? Rest??
5- Dubios fighting in April.

Hearn could have Usyk v Parker but that fight makes Zero $$$.
Maybe Parker v Whyte on Aj v Usyk undercard

October 2019 Chisora not rated
November Chisora defeats unrated Price late October moves to #14
December no fights since October 25th but moves to #9

Ya, although at least this actually has the top ranked guy involved

The WBA just need to slip Chris Lovejoy into a title fight and that will top them all :yay:
