With all the recent activity within the heavyweight division, I'm somewhat surprised at the lack of activity among some fringe contenders and prospects, such as...
Agit Kabayel:_____ Last fight 4/2018
Ivan Dychko:_____ Last fight 7/2018
Andy Ruiz Jr:_____ Last fight 7/2018 (hasn't missed a meal though)
Tony Yoka:_____ Last Fight 6/2018 (back from suspension...no fight scheduled or even rumored)
Izuagbe Ugonoh: __Last Fight 5/2018
Jermaine Franklin: _Last Fight 7/2018
Trevor Bryan _____ Last Fight 8/2018
Yet, these guys retain their ranking or have even moved up over the time from their last bout. seems odd to me.
Most of the heavyweight division is not active. The demand for fights is not there or the simply do want to fight. Otherwise these fringe contenders would at the very least fight each other, Yet they hope for Wilder or Fury like cherry picks.
