    Im hearing he has managed to secure Imam as Crawfords mandatory. How the hell do you lose, beat a guy ranked 434 on boxrec and become mandatory for Crawfords WBC belt?

    Then with Stiverne he fails a drug test, ducks a eliminator and still gets a title shot.

    Either king has some serious dirt on the WBC, he's paying them very well or he's mastered the ranking system in a way never seen before.

    What do you think about Imam getting a title shot?

    It's very strange, is it just money or King has a video of Sulaiman doing some shady stuff?

    Really?
    Source?

    I just assumed King was slowly but surely stepping away from promoting since he pretty much never gets his fighters fighst and they fight on average once every year.

    Clearly hes still got some mojo.

    I do not have a reliable source tbh, I saw it on YouTube which is why I said 'I'm hearing' but Imam is second in the rankings so it wouldn't surprise me.

    King has secured upcoming title shots for Hatley and Stiverne all under the WBC so it's clear the WBC are to him what the WBO are to Arum and Warren.

    "In bed" is a fancy way to word it.

    Given the nature of it, I'd have pegged it as "in a run-down alley behind a closed porno theater".

    It looks like the ol' Cryptkeeper is calling in any favors he's got left from Jose Sulaiman for his kid Mauricio to make good on.

    It's disgraceful. Crawford is smart. Imam can't beat him anyway.
