They're both rather demanding in their negotiations.

What do you think is the most ideal setup for the two, so that they can start to rumble?]]> Firstly, the purse split, and secondly, the weight. They're both rather demanding in their negotiations.

I think when Steve watches the tape, he will see that it was a VERY winnable fight from his perspective. More commitment to the jab & the straight right hand combined with better left-hand defense (Tomasz made a living coming over the top of Steve's left with his right most of the evening) and the result might have been very different. Steve had a significant reach advantage and simply gave it away, IMHO. A significant tactical error, but certainly one that could be rectified given another opportunity.

The former champion did MORE enough to be afforded an opportunity to reclaim the belt. Not to mention the fact that he conducted himself with a champion's class throughout the buildup & the fight. Call me old-fashioned but it's the type of behavior that ought to be encouraged.

All in all, the fight was entertaining enough that the principals & a promoter should be able to make enough shekels to do it again.

Hopefully, the public won't have to sit through too many "gadget" fights in the interim.]]>

I think it's a shame that that the guy who came out on the short end of such a wonderful contest has to get down on his "virtual" knees & beg to to do it again... but such is the world in which we live...

Best of luck to you & I hope you can bring it about!!!! The cynic in me says you may be tilting at windmills but all the best just the same. If the new champion ISN'T immediately going to fight to unify the belts, a rematch is the only fight that makes sense for him w/in the division.

Note to the various alphabet soups that control the sport... If you MAKE a champion fight your #1 contender... AND the result is anything less than a unanimous decision... how about putting a mandatory rematch clause in the contract? It would serve the boxing public and probably make quality match-making a bit easier to boot!

It's a little ridiculous that something like this even has to be done.]]>
