Tim Tszyu has withdrawn from his fight against Vergil Ortiz after receiving medical advice to take more time to heal the cut on his head that happened in Fundora bout. Radzhab Butaev is the WBA #6 & would be a good replacement to face Ortiz.
Could they potentially do a WBA/ WBC interim unification with Ortiz vs Serhii Bohachuk?
It sounds like Ortiz & Bohachuk might have agreed to terms to fight each other.

Apparently Fundora vs Spence is agreed to for October.
October 19th would be a good date for this.

I could see Jermell Charlo coming back to fight Tim Tszyu next once Tszyu is cleared & ready to fight again. They’ve got unfinished business.

They also ruled that Crawford's WBA super welterweight title bout against Israil Madrimov will also be a final eliminator for the WBC super welterweight world title.
Crawford defeated Madrimov by UD to win the WBA World Super Welter Title, along with the WBO Interim World Super Welter Title. The fight was also a final eliminator for the WBC Super Welterweight Title, making Crawford the mandatory challenger to both world titles held by Sebastian Fundora.

The IBF has advised Bakhram Murtazaliev & Tim Tszyu to start negotiations for their mandatory fight. The negotiation period is until September 5th, when a purse bid will be ordered if a deal hasn't been made.

Not sure why it's mandatory, as Murtazaliev has the IBF belt. Should be for the IBF belt. Tim needs to beat him, and then rematch Fundora.

He hasn't really fought anybody of note?

Vergil Ortiz Jr is the new WBC interim Super Welterweight Champion after winning a 12 round majority decision over Serhii Bohachuk in a tremendous FOTY contender.
