If floyd doesn't fight any of the welters will his WBC belt be stripped?

Thats fine,he can fry all the fish he wants,but shouldnt be allowed to sit on the title and possibly logjam the division.
You dont need a cheap plastic belt to fry fish.:good

 

its not his decision. If you want to hate him for having the title, then you might as well hate him for global warming, war in the middle east, and why sam jackson is in so many goddamn movies.

 

Good point,if hes responsible for having a title he wont defend against top WW contenders,then logically,the smart boxing fan figures he's primarily responsible for climate change and Middle Eastern conflict.
Seems so obvious nowatsch :nut .

 

I know that but that was not the point at all.

What are "special circumstances"? What defines those? It's not the same from fighter to fighter. Sometimes they strip you and sometimes they don't.

They stripped Casa for trying to unify, stripped Mosley for agreeing to fight the WBA champion, which would be unification and made Cotto interim champion. That would have put him into position to be the mandatory fight for Mayweather. They didn't believe those instances called for special circumstances. But fighting a fighter from a weight class below you does?

And of course, the WBC can strip you for holding another title they have not "authorized" a fighter to hold. Again, bull****. Point is, he should be stripped if they weren't playing politics. No point in talking about the rules unless they are concrete. When they delve into ambiguity for the sake of corrupt purposes, then the rules are meaningless.

Edit: I don't agree with stripping for the most part. I am merely pointing out the WBC corrupt BS. Their rules have loopholes which they can enforce that circumvent what the rule was meant to prevent in the first place.

 

Youre right,its up to the WBC.
I dont blame floyd for Sulamein being so easily star struck,to be fair;
Id do what i like if they let me too.:good

 

You're missing the point of the interim title. It's meant to protect the org in case the real champ can't defend his title(usually due to injury). It's not meant to name the no.1 contender. Furthermore, it isn't neccesarily a good idea to have a champion from another org. as the mandatory for the champ in your org. That can cause some problems. It is for this reason that sanctionbing bodies don't rank champs from other orgs and it is for this reason that an interim champ can't fight for another orgs title.

There is no rule preventing the real champ from unifying with another recognized sanctioning body. Therefore, I'll have to look into the Casa situation. As far as the vague language is concerned, it's a neccesity. If the language is too rigid, there wouldn't be any lead way for exceptions. If there were no lead way for exceptions, more champs would be stripped. I thought fans didn't want fighters to be stripped? Smart people always leve themselves outs. That's why the U.S constitution was written in the manner that it was.
