    If Crolls fights again I would suspect he will be in line for the vacated wbo title from Terence Crawford - he is the number 2 rated so surely will be the two highest contenders for the vacant belt? A Diaz fight is a lot easier then an Arbil fight for sure! Best route?

    Or if an interim champ were in ace they get the full title when vacated

    Makes sense with Diaz and Crolla being top 2 in the rankings but wonder if the WBO will move Crolla down their rankings because he was set to challenge for the WBA title?
