No it isn't. The Gamrot fight will never approach the numbers for a potential superfight with the P4P king IN HIS NATIVE AUSTRALIA.I understand, but if you explain the reason why islam chose to fight a FW, you're admitting that he chose to fight a FW, which is what the criticism was in the first place. Islam flat out said he could have chosen to fight Gamrot or poirier, but he chose Volk and volk should feel lucky that he gets the chance. He had good reasons, I'm sure, but at the end of the day, the criticism still is fair.
The Volk fight did not happen because Islam was actively looking for a FW to fight with. To insinuate that this was the case is daft.
That was the biggest fight to make. PERIOD.
And Volk was already tapped as the next fight for the winner of Islam v. Charles, as announced BEFORE the fight.
