Basically he's just using and
exploiting the governing bodies. Thats the second time he's fucked the IBF over, hopefully they won't allow him to fight for another version of their title.
Glad someone is

Its these alphabet titles that are ruining boxing. How can they possibly not sanction him fighting Castillo, but say that N'Dou is the more justified contender. Justified in terms of paying their fee's and not the best fight.
I completley agree. Look at what the Ring has everyone ranked. In all fairness the IBF knew that the last fight(s) were a lead up to the June showdown. Ricky could spend all his day (esp. with 4 belts out there) fighting unworthy opponents that wouldnt be that great of bouts or he can do what he knows is the right thing for boxing.............GREAT BOUTS!
