Even in this short time Frame their are guys that would come with better names. They should pay for Brezeale, it would still sell well and he said he is ready himself. Pricing himself out is a cop out from Duco to save money and have a low risk fight.

You can't really blame Duco given the circumstances, just mental that he is ranked in the top 15. I've had a quick look through world title challengers across the last 10 years in all Feds and Cojanu is definitely the least credible.

He lost to a guy called Donavon Dennis by brutal KO; from there he managed a split decision over Grover Young who was 15-17 at the time. And two fights ago, he fought someone who had an 0-3 record. Could this be the worst HW title challenger of this millennium?
he is actually ranked 78 and junior fa is 74. classic

I remember Floyd Paterson defending against Pete Rademacher who was having his first pro fight . If I recall he won the Olympic titel
If that's all they had to choose from, I'm ok with it. BUT, I heard they had 3-4 guys to choose from, according to Team Parker, and they came up with him? Bad move by Duco, as some of the corporates may pull out, and PPV sales will be way down. Penny wise, pound foolish.
