On November 26 Wale Omatoso, 25 years old, is defending the IBF Youth Welterweight title against Muhammad Abdulayev, who is 36.

Muhammad is a rather hairy arsed youth, isn't he? I am surprised Wale stills qualifies for that distinction.

Ah the fountain of youth-- what can't money buy these days 8)

As they say in the ghettos, "Money talks and BS walks."

Is Omotoso any good?

Unbeaten in 17 fights with 15 KOs. OPBF Welterweight champ.

Not bad.

Maybe the IBF's definition of "youth" is the same as how Geology defines it as "the first stage in the erosion cycle".

Muhammad Abdulayev, at 36 years is certainly being eroded by that old devil: time!

Probably would have been better if a rematch was organised between Abdullayev and Philip Holiday.

Men in oz have an average life expectancy of 79 so 36 is a spring chicken.

I wonder when the last time Abdullaev got asked for ID

Just quietly,I thought youth was under 25,there goes that theory

It's surpose to be Mick.

I thought it was 23.

Well, the IBF sanctioned Cameron vs Mirovic for their African title, so this doesn't surprise me.
