    It is well known for the sanctioning bodies to exclude fighters from their rankings sometimes who are closely affiliated with other sanctioning bodies. No surprise here.

    Well that's just plane idiocy. It's either a mistake or an irrationally spiteful move.

    WBC is completey taking over.. I think their new rule that you can't hold an other title if you want their is a blessing in the sky.. We should all ignore the WBA, IBF and especially the WBO..

    WBO is just created for some average German and British fighters who never intended to fight away from home and against world class opponents in the first place.. But now they can call themselve champions and built on off that. And since German fans are stupid as **** and British fans blinded buy nationalism, they'll buy this ****

    Didn't the WBC just make a new rule that you cannot hold any other belt if you want to hold their own? I remember Dan Rafael say something about it.

    Basically you can't have a unified champion anymore.

    You guys are aware that NO sanctioning body ranks fighters who hold another sanctioning body's belt and that Hopkins holds the IBF title now, right?

    I hope you know that 'blessing in the sky' doesn't actually mean anything. I'm pretty sure you meant to say 'blessing in disguise'.

    Tony Bellew is number 1 now with the WBC, Gutknecht lost.

    They haven't updated that yet, if he wins on Saturday, he should get his shot soon.

    Exactly. This is nothing new. This has been a long standing policy by all the sanctioning bodies.
