Klitschko's mandatories/voluntaries???
Posted: 21 Nov 2014, 09:20
Does anyone know how it works regarding mandatories and Klitschko's 3 world title belts (I dont believe the IBO demand mandatory defenses)???
I recently read somewhere that he has to have a WBO mandatory defense every 18 months! Is that how it works with the WBA and IBF too? So in effect he has 18 months to mandatory defend all 3 titles?
Also, we all know that the Fury vs Chisora winner will become WBO mandatory and that Pulev was the IBF mandatory, but who is the IBF mandatory now that Pulev has lost? Glazkov?
And God knows whats going on with the WBA! Is it usually their regular champ who is mandatory or their #1 ranked contender, which would be Luis Ortiz or perhaps Jennings now due to Ortiz testing positive PED's?
Last question... Does anyone know if you can be mandatory for mutiple belts???
