Re: Maccarinelli v Bellew Prime for Prime
Double standards is exactly what i'm pointing out. You keep rattling on about "deserve" and "worthy" but what made Enzo deserve or worthy of being given the WBO title?
He defended it against a former British level fighter that got splattered at European level - a man he'd previously beat. What made Hobson worthy of a title shot? Bobby Gunn was a once retired bare knuckle club fighter, Enzo (Frank Warren) rightly got absolutely slaughtered for masquerading a mismatch as a "world" title fight. What made Gunn worthy? Mohamed Azzaoui was a part-time lawnmower man from the hotbed of New Zealand who magically became ranked no.15 by the WBO when the fight was announced. What made him worthy? These guys never got close to world-class before or after facing Enzo yet you think BJ Flores is a joke voluntary defence. Double standards? BJ Flores at least challenged at world level before Bellew, and is a much more "worthy" opponent than the three Enzo defense victims.
Bellew had six cruiserweight fights which included winning the European title. He was ranked no.6 by the WBC who ordered a shot at no.1 Makabu. How is that any different, bogus to how anyone else gets a title shot?
