    WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman has claimed that Errol Spence's next mandatory due is the WBC mandatory - Keith Thurman is currently #1 in their rankings. WBA mandatory Eimantas Stanionis and IBF mandatory Jaron Ennis also pushing for their shots.

    On WBC's previous rankings from June 16th Thurman was ranked #4.
    How did Thurman leapfrog Vergil (#1) and Ennis (#2) without fighting?

    We Be Crooks doing everything to protect Spence it seems.

    Spence dropping the belt would show he’s not a complete puppet to Haymon at least.

    Someone like Canelo should get on the scene, beat those paper champions and clean all those divisions.

    Spence-Thurman next? Id prefer Stanionis but even then, Thurman is still 10x a better opponent than Avanesyan is. Still not understanding why Crawford is going with a voluntary instead of his mandatory Ortiz Jr.

    Out of curiosity, is this one of the more blatantly corrupt moves in recent history, rankings wise?

    I smell a title split because Errol Spence and Terrance Crawford is in the offing.

    Errol deciding of his own volition to not fight Thurman, doesn't erase that the powers that be manipulated the system to attempt to orchestrate this fight.

    How is pointing that out gossip?

    And we will see if Errol doesn't fight Thurman when it's all said and done, I'll be surprised if that remains the case.
