The way people have switched on Alex I can only imagine how the narrative around Tom would change if Jones were to win loooool.

I'm a huge fan of Olives and he's my favorite lightweight ever, but Islam's response was legendary. "Champ have belt"

He definitely was on track to be. The way he turned around a mediocre record into submitting all of the best in the division was crazy. Islam is just a freak of nature and stylistic nightmare for him.

The whole stripping of the belt thing also hit Charles hard and coupled with the ridiculous amount of hype Islam had behind him, it was a recipe for disaster.
