Don King is notorious for keeping fighters inactive. He ruined Sergey Lyakhovich and many others that way.
Guillermo Jones is coming up on a year in September since he won his title, but there's nothing scheduled.
The WBA should call for purse bids and force Santos, Jones and Kessler to each fight a mandatory, but it seems that senile old men run the WBA and they're asleep at the wheel.
DK isn't stupid, the reason he gets his fighters to fight for the WBA is because a titleholder doesn't have to fulfill his mandatory if he doesn't want to for 2 years (ask Trekas) and they rarely even enforce their 'rules' for the challenger.
Brahim Asloum was supposed to fight Giovanni Segura 2 years ago. Santos better hope he doesn't get thrown in there against P-Will, that's the worst guy to fight after long layoff. I would have picked him to beat Williams before, but not now.
Every fighter that has a title and/or wants to fight should leave Don King cuz they are only going to fight once a year, twice if they're lucky.
Yeah, he looked totally flat in that fight, and that made me lose interest in him. But I saw his fight with Jose Rivera on the Peter-Toney undercard and he looked good. Rivera isn't an elite fighter though. The style of Simms was too economical for my taste too, but he has knockout power and he's slick. His style is really similar to Daniel Santos. He just didn't let his hands go in that fight you're talking about with Alcime, and he kept clinching continuously too. Shit got on my nerves.
That fight was awful, and even tho I liked Simms, I was glad to see him lose his belt to an unknown in his hometown cuz of it.
I ain't seen him since he lost that shit fight wit Alcine.

Dude had a FIght early on the year against a Japanese dude, but the dude pulled out, then he had a fight set up for august against krikland, but that dumbass managed himself to jail.
So he is left with nothing.
This is something Weird, cuz this sanctioning bodies take titles away for not defending them in a determined amaout of time right? WHy they dont Force Foreman to face him, since Foreman is the WBA number 1 contender and Santos has been inactive for a year now?
This sickeds me, because O bet if Santos gets some Unification fight, they will manage to take the titloe away from Santos.
Dialo Champ esa foto es Clasica, esas tres mujeres juntas me traen tantos recuerdos... como yo esperaba los lunes con aquellas ansias cabronas como tipico yakito boricua... en vdd ya la Taina me apestaba pero la cuera de Glerys tiene algo que siempre me ha gustao... y la Burbu si me la da se la rajo jajajajaja
agreed
yes. it's a shame because i think he can beat almost everybody at 154
I think so as well he is a total package boxer puncher with good hand speed. He makes good fights in my opinion.
He isn't getting him any fights and has a title, time is running out Santos.
