Why was Ezzard Charles set to be overtrained?

Every single other fighter was in Top condition

We don't recognize this result, and demand the fight be run again with both fighters in Top Condition as per the rules of this Season.

The rules will not be changed my fighter and my fighter only. If that's the way it's gonna be. I'll straighten the issue out one way or another.

Fair request as long as all parties agree. , in week 11 this can be made so. I can not cancel a fight that is in the database. and I have no explanation for the situation...other than human error...or software quirk. Would you and your champ like some cheese with his whine?

Other possible explanations....

Maybe Ezz was just a bit nervous and decided to buckle down to business and overdid it?
Russian Hacking?
Armagetto at it again?


Rest assured the WBC did it's due diligence!!!!

Run it again. With both fighters in Top condition. This result is not recognized.

All parties don't need to agree. I demand this be run again IN WEEK 10! With both fighters in Top Condition. There is no other acceptable solution.

You're not gonna f*ck over me, and just me. I don't play that sh*t.

This will either be corrected or drastic measures will be taken, and you the Commissioner by allowing this rigged result to go through will be the one at fault.

Be forgiving.

It is now forever a part of the record. Your request is reasonable. And we wait for others to chime in. The WBC is in agreeance, If Archie and the IBO are also in agreeance, your wish will be granted.

It's the imperfections in very finest of leather vs it's "flawless" vinyl counterpart that set it apart....just as the sim world is contrasted from the "worse than sim" world.

One must come to appreciate such nuance.

Archie doesn't need to agree. It's happening.

I would expect the same kinda outrage out of anybody if their fighter lost due to a setting that was established before the season started as not being possible.

Archie Moore would get his rematch, and the result would not be recognized if the shoe was on the other fit.

That's the way it's gonna be.

The WBC agrees with you and calls for the rematch. But Archie is free to do as he wishes. As is the IBO. As of course are you. I

Archie is free to do as he wishes, and so am I.

You will have the whole day to do the right thing. I expect to see the match run again within 12 hours.

Not a rematch. The same match with the correct data.

We do not recognize the controversial bout as having taken place.

Hopkins the hopeless strikes again! Shocking the fans week in, week out with just how bad he can be! Think he would struggle to make the WBU rankings at this rate.

Greb is doing pretty well this season so far.

Showing unusual knockout power too I must say. I wouldn't doubt he's been juicing.

Would someone who was convicted of fraud previously allow their fighter to juice when trying to redeem themselves and their reputation?
I think not. There is no way Mr. Bond or the completely clean Mr Packer would ever allow such shenanigans.
