Three-division world champion Baton Jack said he had made concessions in talks with Sur Alvarez and agreed to defend his WBC welterweight title at 190 pounds. Alvarez, on the other hand, asked Jack, 39, for more. In the end, they could not reach an agreement.
Badu Jack said: "By the way, I have agreed to race with Alvarez at 190 pounds. Two years ago I was able to drop to 180 pounds, but today it's a different story, a completely different story. ”
In addition, veteran Jack also pointed out that before Alvarez's match against Bivol, Alvarez got carried away and went up to the welterweight division to challenge Makabu, even battling Usyk at more than 200 pounds.
Jack said: "I myself never took the initiative to challenge Alvarez, it was a journalist who asked me if I would be interested in playing a match with Alvarez because Alvarez asked for a promotion to the welterweight division and I had to say yes. They had wanted to fight Macab in the welterweight division (200 pounds), and they had wanted to fight Usyk in the 201 pound heavyweight division. ”
Whether it was 180 pounds or 190 pounds, in short, the match between Jack and Alvarez was in vain, and Ava did not dare to fight.
But Ava's mouth is still very hard. He defended his actions, saying, "In July 2021, Jack said he was willing to race 168 pounds of me at 175 pounds. In June 2023, Jack weighed 200 pounds, and he told me, who holds a 168-pound belt, that I, known as the garden elf, will compete with him in the welterweight division, and I agree to the 180-pound race, but Jack refuses. Can you call me a badass? ”
Alvarez never admitted his shamelessness and could justify such actions. I have to admire Alvarez's face. The truth is that now if Jack agrees to the "180 lbs + rehydration limit" condition, it means that Jack needs to diet every day to lose a lot of muscle, run every day to lose weight, and go crazy for dehydration.
Can he still effectively resist Alvarez ? The 39-year-old Jack was the weakest of the welterweight titles, and on the night of the match, Jack came out as a zombie. Alvarez will easily win his 5th division.
Alvarez once killed Kovalev on similar conditions, and this time he wanted to repeat the old trick, but unfortunately Jack did not make a move. In the face of money and physical health, Jack still chose the latter. The taste of life earning and not spending life is not comfortable. 【Text/Fighting Rivers and Lakes】
