    What's the point when you'll be stripped immediately?

    How is that even possible? Say Martinez wants to Unify. He has 4 champions he's gotta beat. 4 fights would take 2 years.. and in between he'd have to take care of his mandatory challengers aswell..

    I'm tellling you, the WBC, WBA etc really figured this out well.. It's so ****ing corrupt and it's making being champion nothing special.

    Purse bid for Lemieux-Rubio is this Friday, hopefully the WBC endorses it as the eliminator which will determine Zbik's mando. Chavez Jr might squeeze in a title shot sometime in the Spring, and I'm really hoping it's not considered Zbik's 2011 compulsory defence. Otherwise, Zbik/Chavez Jr will never fight David. GYM already knows Chavez Jr won't fight Lemieux, and Zbik is with Universum so that says it all...

    BTW: http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?p=8679436

    It was a bit predictable. Regardless, Maravilla is still Emeritus Champ (not "Super" champ, that's WBA terminology).

    If WBC politics are too hard to overcome, I hope Lemieux goes after Pirog for the WBO belt. Sturm and Sylvester ain't giving the kid a shot.

    This is getting horrible. He just decimated Williams in chilling fashion and gets stripped? Horrible! Whatever, he's still champ until he loses. Hopefully he continues boxing against top names like he has been as of recent. 154 to 160, I'm pretty damn sure he's the man. Win or lose, he's fun as hell to watch.

    you missed of the coverted Diamond and International champs

    Just waiting for one of these fools to click on to other coverted metals and jewels......
    coming soon................the wbc......................Platinum belt...............emmerald belt.................................ruby belt.................................................adamantium belt:patsch

    back to the point, its ridiculous when theres 4 recognised champions in a weight division and none of them are actually the best or most recognised in the division:patsch

    basically the wbc, wba, wbo, ibf :patsch:patsch:patsch:patsch:patsch:patsch
