Sulaiman: Beterbiev-Bivol Would Not Involve WBC Title

This content is protected

They should fight anyway, WBC belt will not on the line for Bivol ? so what ? there is still two other belts.

 

Are there ztill talks about making it though?

 

There goes undisputed LHW championship, thanks we be clowns

 

Well, isn't that super.

 

So the fervently pro-Canelo organization won't allow the fighter who absolutely humiliated the Mexican ginger to become undisputed? Sulaiman is one strange fellow, I tell you what.

So wait, hang on a second....

When Canelo rematches Bivol is the WBC belt not on the line then too?

 

I think this goes back to late last year when the WBC declared that they would not sanction fights involving fighters from Russia or Belarus because of their war against Ukraine.

Boxing: WBC removes Russian and Belarusian fighters from rankings, will not sanction their fights | Marca

I find it hypocritical that the WBC will sanction fights put up by the Saudis, one of the worst human rights violators on earth, but then they refuse to sanction fighters just because they have Russian heritage, something totally beyond a fighter's control - we don't get to choose where we're born.

 

Not at 175.

It´s pretty weird how Sulaiman has only now made this public announcement. We know the WBC has barred Russian nationalists from competing in their sanctioned fights, but this unification has been talked about since November of last year.

"“We believe in what the world is doing but we also have to look at specific cases and make justice prevail.”"
Not allowing Bivol to unify is not justice.

 

regardless of belts, bivol vs Beterbiev would be a great fight. belts or no belts the boxing fans will know who the best of 175 is.

 

Scumbags

 

Don't be surprised, its Mexico and they do whatever the United States tells them to do. Everything is political.

 

Jeez, just cause of where the man is from? I mean, I sorta get it, I hate California too. But I'd never stop anyone from having a belt they won just because they fight out of Indio.

Sorry we can't all be Canadians like Artur Beterbiev, We Back Canada.

 

This is just bullying. Sauliman trying to prevent the fight from happening until Canelo at least gets his rematch. Plain and simple.

 

Yep. If Beterbiev threw the WBC belt in the bin to make the fight happen, and won..... Fans/history would remember that.

 

Who cares if the wbc are being divas. The winner of that fight is still the best LHW in the world.
