btw, if andrade beats this namibian fellow for the wbo title, he has to be up there for having one of the weaker records about 3 time world champs
i know he looks a talent, but were talking career best wins over jack culcay and vanes mart
wouldve loved to see what he had vs a clear world level middleweight

If he gets stripped of his belt he's gonna find it hard to get back in a mandatory position as I can't see many people wanting to box bill. He won't bring a lot to the table and he would be a hard fight for any middleweight out there

Hard to have any sympathy, he's held that belt hostage.

That’s Bursak, Anvil, Murray and now Andrade.
I know not all have been Bill’s fault. I have heard some conspiracy theories though.

The Anvil fight. Some forums, not boxrec, had posters saying Frank W. dug into Anvil's past and stitched him up.

Yeah he has mate but I think we would of seen him in big fights from here on in. I bet he don't want to be in this sport a lot longer and a run of a few big fights would get him home serious readies

Absolutely no chance. Those sort of investigations take months, if not years.

Hey, it's not my theory.. and it's not always the case it can even take a matter of days if you know the right people.

We’re talking about Khurtsidze, right? He was done under RICO and they arrested like 30 people at the same time under a variety of charges. No chance they could have gotten all the evidence together so quickly.
Plus I’m sure FW would never do anything so underhand

Grassing is f*cking dirty
Doubt anyone could get khurtsidze on all that so quick

Anything could happen with the WBO appeal.
Personally, if I had BJS on board I would say to the WBO I would never work with promoting their title again if they stripped them and hurt them in the pocket, otherwise, I don't see BJS goes from here.

Would be a ballsy move from FW. Most of his champs over the last 20 years have come from the WBO - as well as the plethora of easy title defences.

Frank W. helped legitimize WBO as one of the top 4 orgs!

Khurtsidze got done by an FBI investigation going back years. They had surveillance from six different states & three countries. The sting that got his boss involving the five tons of stolen chocolate was an elaborate set-up that apparently took years to arrange, FFS.
33 other people went down with him. Anyone who sees the Dread Hand of Fwank behind this is a fuckin' idiot, & probably the sort of person who now posts in the Off-Topic Forum on this board.

It's odd that there has been no official comment.
No tweets from BJS, no comment from Hearn or official statement from DAZN or Matchroom. Nothing from allegedly.
Very odd. Almost a bit too quiet.

He needs their WBO european and inter titles too much. Keeps his fighters from facing proper opposition.
