Mormeck doesn't hold the IBF title either.

[kurtangle01]

Just checked and Haye is rated #1 contender by the WBC and Bell is rated #2. Haye is ranked at 6 by the WBA while bell is rated at 4. There's no way that Mormeck would be forced to give up his WBC title for fighting his mandatory instead of O'neill Bell and the fact that Bell is rated so low by the WBA means that Mormeck wouldn't have to hand that title back for fighting Haye before bell.

As a maybe linked bit of news, Herbie Hide has just won tonight at cruiserweight in a fight in Germany. He knocked out Pavol Polakovic in the sixth.

Herbie was a great fighter - in his own head.
It's just that his head was up his arse!!

Hide thought he was Ali. I still wince at the gulf in class when he stepped into the ring with Riddock Bowe.

I remember early in the Bowe fight Riddick slipped and fell flat on his face, arms by his side. For one ghastly moment I thought Hide had snatched his chin.

Yeah, and then normal service was resumed.
