    This is ridiculous. Klitschko injured now. What happens to the vacant belts now then?

    How dull.

    The heavyweight division is in serious need of some credibility.

    The only belt under consideration for this fight was the WBA anyway, which wasn't even confirmed. So it doesn't affect the belts at all really.

    Ruiz vs. Parker for the WBO (I think). Joshua has the IBF. Wilder has the WBC. The IBO isn't worth talking about. So only the WBA doesn't have a plan for it ........ rumour is they'll keep it vacant for the Spring when Joshua fights Klitschko at the Millenium Stadium.

    Still trying to think how David Haye fits in to the equation for 10th December. Announced he's fighting and won't be on his own card when Joshua is fighting at the MEN on the same night and other World Title fights have already been confirmed as well.

    I just don't see that fight happening. Ruiz and Parker need to fight by the end of the year for the WBO belt and the winner must fight Haye within 120 days. Haye isn't moving down to Cruiserweight and appears to have his next two fights locked in.

    Maybe if Haye wins the World Title you can then have Cruiserweigh Champ vs. Heavyweight Champ at a catchweight, but it's more likely Haye vs. Joshua in the Summer providing they both keep winning.
