from what i understand he's basically interim. He can fight for the Cruiserweight title when he wants
So even if he fights at heavyweight in his next fight and gets beat he can then move back down to cruiserweight again and fight for the title not a bad situation to be in thanks for the reply
yeah thats right. Its a ridiculous concept though, this emeritus, coz Vitali Klitsckho is still emeritus champ so if he comes out of retirement he's Wilders mandatory
Surely the emeritus status should only last a certain period of time or be taken off you if you retire
Ridiculous that Tony ****ing Bellew can be an Emiratus champ. Thought that was for retirees, like Floyd and Vitali. Bellew defended his belt once against Flores. Comical.
Which is fine and I can understand that but vacating the title should be enough. His done nothing to warrant such a status as to challenge for the title whenever he sees fit.
Yeap exactly He as got way above his own admitted level Anyone remember him hold that euro belt saying this is my world title He like corolla IMO have punched way above there weight with good promoting and clever match making also Ricky burns for med falls into this bracket
He's never fighting at cruiserweight again. He wants one shot at the heavyweight title. And win or lose that will be it.
This is bizarre because Drozyd was supposed to be emeritus champion when Belles faced Makubu. The WBC do this for their good earners I think Floyd is still an emeritus champion as we speak.
Vitali Klitschko is the WBC emeritus champion and could knock Wilder out now........................but he is the mayor of the 8th largest city in Europe, Kiev, so he has to protect Ukraine from Putin and Trump..............
