The guy is the mandatory for his European title which is a presitigous belt. I cant see any reason to dump that belt at the moment until he gets a genuine world title shot. So he has to fight him to keep the euro belt so lets not criticise him for that FFS.

I dont see who else there is he can fight to boost his rankings any other way. The 'names' mentioned are below him anyway pointless fighting those guys also then?
Yes, but the names mentioned are names. It might capture some attention states side. Perhaps it will drum up enough attention that the mandatory position might not be needed to fight one of the champions.
