Freddie Steele is fighting Cerdan
Mike McCallum is booked to fight Floyd Jr.
Tommy Hearns has other opportunities
Marvin Hagler is fighting for the vacant IBF
GGG turned me down
What's Greb to do?
Greb got a yes from GGG or Floyd,
As long as Nino faces Hopkins.
This is not "Grebs dilemma" He has his yes, all the manager has to do is take an equally risky proposition for his fighter via Nino vs Hopkins.
This is not Grebs issue....he is simply the pawn, this is Gilligan'sMess
He needs grow a pair immediately, if not sooner.
Gligoid, it's time to man up and do the right thing.

The right thing has been done. Greb vs Hearns is signed. Hearns is the #1 contender. We don't need your bogus conditions when we can get a better fighter in the ring anyway.

Williams is coming off a loss, therefore he is not eligible for a World title shot this week.
Fair enough. Though out of curiosity is it Top 14 or 15 that are eligible for major title fights (if they aren't coming off a loss)?

If running is the right thing, then yes, yes it has.
And we do not offer "bogus" conditions, we offer win/win, reasonable, sensible, plausible, and aplaudable conditions.

You don't dictate terms to the Champions manager. Because you tried, you didn't get a shot. That's all there is to it.

Shot? The only "shot" missed here is your inability to land a fight with only Premium SimBoxing Conglomerate in the BRS.
Your belt is meaningless, it's the GBP brand that gives credibility.
Not having your fighters winning some sort of Kelloggs pissy cereal box belt, and then sending your fighters running from the adults in the room.
Now simmer down, and sign up, as soon as possible.

Duran will take on Herol Graham. He'll do the Ryan fight a little down the line. Still trying to see exactly what we have in this version of the Sims Duran...

Flowers is the CPU Champion, he can't be challenged when in that position.
SRR already booked Hope before you called him out.

Sure I can put that fight on the card for you, but FMJ has been offered the chance to fight for the vacant Light Middleweight title this week?

Anyway, I've updated as far as I can.
Managers can have a good look at what's going on then make decision as to what they want to do.

armageto - Roberto Duran

Fist of Legend - Mickey Walker, Terry Norris, Jimmy Bivins
Gilgamesh - Tommy Ryan
HyacinthusTurnipseed - Holman Williams
Kevo - Dick Tiger, Mike McCallum, Michael Nunn
Sweet P - Marvin Hagler, Oscar De La Hoya, Sam Langford
The vacant IBF title opportunity still goes to Hagler and Golovkin.
The vacant Light Middleweight title opportunity still goes to Mayweather and McCallum.

Mayweather will face McCallum......
Golovkin will NOT face Hagler, and he never will....they are fast friends, and Hagler's manager knows this, but Hagler's manager would sell his fighter out for a plug nickel if there was a plug nickel to be made.
We at GBP answer to a higher calling.

Seeing as Buzz has ducked a World title shot. Per haps Mr Techno would like either of his 2 highy-ranked boys to take the fight against Hagler.

He wanted DLH vs Pernell for this week. Must win for De La Hoya

Tommy Ryan is booked to fight Koichi Wajima by the way. Both Emile Griffith and Roberto Duran turned down his challenge so the Wajima fight is what we'll go with.

Terry Norris has to give Quartey a rematch after that last debacle, this time Norris won't be undertrained. but would also be willing to step in vs Hagler if no one else will with the stipulation that he keeps the keys to the MGM grand should he lose, if he becomes World Champion, he will vacate his room.

Rooms at the MGM grand should not be given out like so much candy to sweeten these deals. In or out.....no dressings, perks, or payola.

In the absense of prospective challengers, i think this is a bold move & fair deal.
Hagler vs Norris for the IBF World title... To take place at Las Vegas.
Ike Quartey will fight on the undercard, perhaps someone would like to challenge him?

Holman books the Booker.
