ReplyDeleteShouldn't that be spelled WBC Fakebox title, what a joke, this is the kind of stuff hurting boxing these days, everybodies walking around claiming to be a champion these days.
ReplyDeleteIt's a legitimate title.. . Tony is ranked 15th in the world by the WBC. What does your know it all ass have to show for? That's what I thought, now shut the fuck up and have some humble pie you little cc
ReplyDeleteIm just curious on to how Jeter earned this title....was it his win over Jose Felix who was 11 wins and 11 losses coming into the 2nd bout?Or against Tyrell Brown who had been knocked out in the 1 round prior to his bout with Tony Jeter?I mean look at Jeters last 6 bouts:Jimmy Lange 38-4,Tyrell Brown 7-2,Jose Felix 11-11(who actually stopped Jeter in the first encounter)Ken Durham 6-12,Mike Mcfail 12-41-2,and Redmond coming in at 4 wins and 7 losses.
ReplyDeleteExplain to me how those wins qualify Jeters "title" shot?
The shame of it is the attention Jeter gets when there are alot more talented boxers in the region.
I mean name 1 prospect/contender from the DMV area you see Jeter beating?
Hell he bought his title and now he walks around claming to be a "champion"
Hell Correa his next opponent has been koed 4 times in the FIRST round!
If Jeter likes to walk around and talk the talk at least fight someone who can fight back and no Lange dosent qualify as hes been shot for sometime now.
Jeter won the vacant Fecarbox title against Tyrel Brown in September. That got him the ranking in the WBC. The win over Lange, who was once ranked, moved him eventually to number 15.
ReplyDeleteOther boxers have moved quicker facing lesser competition than this.
Thank you Mr.Gary for your answer but I have to ask how would Brown be able to get a title shot coming off a first round loss?And how would Jeter qualify for a shot with coming off a loss to Felix-even though he latter avenged it?
ReplyDeleteBoth McCalla and Stevenson-who are both from the beltway region have fought better opponents and have better records then Jeter but neither one are rated as high as Jeter in their weight classes.
Also, neither McCalla nor Stevenson have been as active as Jeter. McCalla fought for the first time since August last night. Stevenson has had all sorts of trouble getting bouts. Jeter has cultivated a nice relationship with the WBC. They know who he is. Other boxers need to take note.
ReplyDeleteSo in others words he basically paid for his title-because lets face it it sure wasnt who he was fighting as to how he got his "title" shot.
ReplyDeleteBecause your not going to tell me that Brown qualified for his shot by getting stopped in the first round in his prior fight.
The WBC basically knows Jeter because he has a venue he can promote out of readily and alot of other boxers in the area do not have that advantage.
