    Yeah...it's a very corrupt, dirty business. They still roll as if they were all-powerful trade union bosses in the 1970s:

    WBC Convention Update!

    Promoter Gary Shaw attended tonight's dinner at the Chengdu Tea Room Restaurant. After dinner, head and shoulder massages were offered. Shaw took the opportunity to relieve the stress of the day at the ratings meeting in which he also came up with the quote of the day. While fielding challenges from Asian promoters to his "New Sheriff in Town," undisputed super flyweight champion Vic Darchinyan, Shaw shot down the offers by saying, "It's not about the money, it's about the money!" All those gathered in attendance roared, except for the rebuffed promoters.
    Another election of sorts was held tonight in Chengdu, China at the 46th Annual WBC convention as Miss WBC Oksana Semenishina of Lithuania surrendered her crown after a two year reign. The new Miss WBC is Yi Li of China. after being crowned by her predecessor, Miss Li performed a cultural dance for the dinner crowd at the Chengdu Tea Room. Li will hold the crown until 2011.


    :nut :-( :verysad :blood

    Head massages after dinner, a Miss WBC Competition, cynicism all round, etc...

    The WBC doesn't play around. They'll take your trunks if you're not careful. Kelly needs to cough it up if he wants to keep that belt.

    He knew what the deal was when he got that belt. He can't go around fighting for a belt and then not pay what he owes.

    kelly lost all his claims of being undisputed after that beatdown he got
    if he gets stripped of his wbc belt abraham might have a claim of being the best at that division
    because we all know the wbo title is **** on a strap

    Pavlik was complaining about these types of sanctioning fees in the past, from what I recall.

    Pav is no different from any boxer today or yesterday. He has to pay the sanctioning fees in order to keep his title.
