    Floyd ? **** no because he isnt an active fighter. WBC should have forced Berto to face Collazo agian. **** the WBC.

    Don't remember that with Jones. Explain?

    But Vitali was given the Emeritus Title when he came back. More ceremonial in that he could get a title shot if he wanted. Yet he didn't really have a belt.

    i dont remember the exact details of the roy jones situation but he decided not to pay the sanctioning fee and they stripped him, some dude over in poland or germany(cant remember his name) fought for the vacant title, won it and then roy jones decided he wanted it back and they just GAVE it back to him.

    That was with Darius M. And the title that was taken from Darius M was not given to Jones. Not sure of the exact circumstances, but some guy was stripped, sued, and won. Jones wasn't just handed that belt.

    Homeboy gotta Berto fetish. It's not Berto's fault Floyd didn't fight him when he was the mandatory, and Pacroidio won't fight him either.

    if floyd wants it, he'll take it. no need for the wbc to do anything.
