I salute the Briedis wins and always will, but I believe we saw Jai’s ceiling in those fights. That ceiling may be good enough to unify CW, but it’s hard to gauge based off the banquet of stiffs he’s faced since. 2026, mid-range, is probably the soonest we’ll see Jai/Zurdo, if at all.

have they asked these cruiser belt holder Do You Want to unify and what are u doing about it???? put to each one and ask are they gettting their promoter to do their bidding or all just sitting on their Asses spouting crap over and over agin

He can only fight who wants to fight him. That aint Zurdo, Badou or CBS. They’d rather hold their straps to ransom than lose them trying to unify.
Ain’t nothing wrong with Jai wanting to follow the Usyk route; become undisputed and step up in weight straight to a title shot.
Meantime he just needs to keep beating the guy in

I agree – it’s questionable whether Opetaia can make it as a heavyweight. But he’s wasting time trying to unify at cruiser: neither Zurdo or Jack want to risk the belts they have and even they do fight him, who would really care?
jist move up, take a shot at heavy and get the big purses that come with mixing with

I’m unsure what Buff Guy Jai is waiting for
he was happy to fight on with a jaw that was broken in two places. So he’s clearly comfortable with challenges
lot of talk about Buff Guy Jai at heavyweight
idk this guy’s fight night weight
but he should stay at cruiser for as long as he can
he gets shaky legs from shots by
