nice write-up @thesportsguy, its not looking good for May 5th..
Latest news is that Vanes Martirosyan has been offered the fight, but he's not ranked by any of the major bodies, hasn't fought in 2 years and is actually a light middle-weight!
Would be a shame if GGG gets stripped of the IBF title because he is waiting for the big $$$ for the Clenelo rematch..
Thanks @steem-beat appreciate it. I agree its not looking so good for May 5th anymore. I read the same thing earlier today that Martirosyan has been offered the fight, but like you pointed out, hasn't fought in 2 years and isn't ranked, etc. so not the most ideal candidate for sure.
I hope he doesn't get stripped either. He's hasn't ducked anybody and has always taken care of his mandatories as Champ; he's obviously in a unique situation and I agree I hope it doesn't cost him the IBF belt in the end. Still hope he can fight on May 5, even if it is a no-name at this point.
