    I hate ABC groups. This is such a bs mandatory. One of Ocampo's 3 biggest W's is over Jorge Paez Jr. Big fan of Paez Sr back in the day, but his son never came close to reaching his dad's greatness. This mfer should at least have to beat a Sammy Vazquez or someone top 20ish, top 30ish to get a title shot. Boxing is so insane sometimes.

      Point to any other welterweight that you could definitely say is better than Lamont Peterson.
      Ok let's start with the fact that Peterson ain't a real phuking Welterweight and work back from there. He is a old career 140lb fighter who just moved to 147 for the first time his last fight. Now he's one of the top welterweights in the world? He was also an inactive fighter who hadn't fought for almost a year. Before that looked terrible got his azz kicked by 140lb Felix Diaz but got a BS decision that almost NOBODY thought he won back in 2015. Look at the screams of robbery on this very board from that fight
      //krikya360.com/forums/s...d.php?t=691430

      So he's only fought once in almost 3 years and that was his first fight ever at 147 against a average Avanesyan who isn't on anybody's top welterweight rankings and didn't look great in that fight. But that makes Peterson a top welterweight? He was iced by Matthyssee half a decade ago and doesn't have a win over a top fighter since 2011 and that was a fight he was busted for PEDs and at 140 has done literally NOTHING at welterweight. Don't turn into a GGG fanboy where we start pumping up guys just because GGG fought them. Peterson is old, beaten multiple times, not a real welterweight, inactive, wasn't a big puncher at 140 and now in his second fight at 147 was a massive underdog in this fight for a reason. Nobody picked him to win and the vegas line was crazy lopsided because this was a mismatch. Peterson is talking about retiring for a reason.

      Thurman
      Porter
      Garcia
      Pacquaio
      Horn
      Figueroa
      Berto
      Matthysse
      Vargas
      Collazo

      there you go off the top of my head without breaking a sweat that's 10 better welterweights right now better then Peterson and 7 of them are signed with Haymon.

        This fight is a joke!! the ibf should be ashamed of themselves for having ocampo the mandatory for spence!! someone is going to get severely injured! How can you have the #1 and #2 ranked spots be vacant!?! what the fuhhh kind of ish is that?! ocampo is still green and they gonna throw him in there with a killer??? this is a bad look for the ibf!!

        rank porter whether he likes it or not and force him to fight errol

          11. Ray Robinson
          12. Zhankhozh Turarov
          13. Carlos Molina
          14. Yordenis Ugas
          15. Laszlo Toth

          He just fought the only guy on that list I have seen fight. No wonder he wants to unify so badly. That is the only way to get good opponents for him at this point. I hope Thurman doesn't fight Vargas because he and Collozo are the only ones on record asking for a Spence fight. There is also a possibility of him facing the winner of Alexander vs Ortiz. If Crawford wins he will be in the same position.

          WBO rankings

            they are vacant because the IBF does not just "appoint" someone to the #1 or #2 spot, you actually have to fight another top 10 opponent in an eliminator to get the #1 or #2 spot. Ocampo is getting the shot because a mando is due, and at #3 he is currently the highest rated contender.

            Ranking Porter would be ******ed because there is no way he takes the fight. He just won a minor WBC title and is the mando to Thurman. He is going to sit (or maybe fight a dummy in the meantime) until he gets the Thurman fight.

Now he gets a trash opponent and now ppl are criticizing his opponent. This is exactly what ya'll wanted and now you got it and you still complaining.


                  But he's active doe.
