Mr. Devon Alexander WBC Superlightweight Champion My dear champion: The beautiful letter you sent to me has touched my heart and has confirmed our feelings towards you from your WBC family. We will never forget your presence in Chengdu, China, where the WBC held the first major boxing event in that historic country, where you fought and showed the world your unbelievable boxing ability. The WBC stood firmly by you when nobody gave you credits as WBC mandatory challenger and ordered you to fight for the WBC vacant title when Timothy Bradley decided not to fight against yourself as mandatory challenger. You have been closely associated with the WBC since the year 2006, when you become a WBC Youth world champion and then become WBC Continental Americas champion to then conquer glory and win the WBC world championship against former champion Junior Witter. I am deeply sorry for the bad intentions that Mr. Dan Rafael has in writing such negative reports. We in the WBC only care for the feelings and actions of our proud WBC green and gold champion. I have disregarded the so many humiliations received by the WBC and some of our members and only care for this beautiful letter written by yourself, which was sent to me by your manager Kevin Cunningham, who has worked for you with unbelievable dedication and exemplary care for you as a human being and as a champion. My dear champion, I know that at your young age you have formidable future and the World Boxing Council will be in your corner forever. Your friend always, Jose Sulaiman Ch.

Devon Alexander then sent Sulaiman a letter stating that he didn't authorize the original letter, and that he never intended to vacate the belt. The letter that Rafael published in his blog was a letter from Sulaiman in response to the first letter from Team Alexander where they said they wanted to vacate the belt.
