Jose Sulaiman Lashes Out at Nacho Beristain

By Mark Vester

The President of the WBC, Jose Sulaiman, has lashed out at manager/trainer Ignacio "Nacho" Beristain over some of his recent comments regarding sanctioning organizations. Sulaiman is upset that Nacho made a public statement that "sanctioning organizations are formed by bandits and thieves."

"He said that all organizations are made up of bandits and thieves who only go for the money and abuse people. I want him to  try prove it because there is no proof. I will send him a legal letter to begin a lawsuit and then he will have the opportunity to prove everything I did. I will do it immediately," Sulaiman told The Record.

"He attacks everybody, but it is very clear that I am one of them because he is attacking the diamond belt and everything, He should really be careful with with the things he says because he owes a lot to everyone in boxing."

Nacho claims that he never spoke about any specific person. He was talking about the way things are done in general.

"If a fighter is a champion a number of organizations and has to pay all of them, that is why sometimes fighters get rid of the title because if they do, they do not have to pay. I never referred to him," Nacho said.
