    The WBC "proudly" stripped Maravilla of the belt for fighting a tougher opponent in Dzinziruk than Zbik and handed it to Zbik then onto Chavez after a match he debatably lost in against Zbik, so this is only fair.

    I'm sorry but NO.

    The winner of Cotto Canelo is the middleweight champion regardless of the status of the WBC's worthless trinket. The lineal title cannot be stripped...

    GG gets my respect in this manner. He allowed Cotto to make money. If Cotto comes up with ridiculous demands should he win, and the fight isn't made, Cotto can be called whatever you want to call him. GG loses out on beating a lineal champion, but it wouldn't be his fault.

    Nope!
    The WBC title belt is at stake for Canelo. Canelo is paying the WBC sanctioning fee!

    Do you even understand what I'm saying?

    And I meant to say that the WBC had Cotto as it's lineal champion, not title. substitute the two words.:good

    Maybe this confused you which is my fault.

    What if they cant come to terms?

    What if Team Caneloni demand 95/5 split and Team Golovkin refuse?

    Can Caneloni then fight someone else?

    I doubt the purse splits for WBC mandatory defenses are 95/5

    That won't be a problem. The weight will be the issue. And no he can't fight someone else. He will be stripped if he doesn't fight GG.

    Nope, also already mentioned. The WBC rules for mandatory apply... if Golovkin doesn't agree with Canelo's demands but does to the WBC standard rules, Canelo has to comply or vacate.
    Would be something if every boxer could make up his own demands and rules, Floyd style.

    No. Fights go to purse bids for a reason.
