I was reading one of the recent threads and I seen that the WBC wants to offer the "DIAMOND BELT" to the winner of Mosley and Mayweather in the same division that Pac beat Cotto in... I thought when Pac had won it it was a NEW title that he would eventually have to defend but seeing that its been offered to Mayweather and Mosley does it make it just a reward for a super fight or was it actually a real title that Pac Vacated? Can someone please explain....
Manny Pacquiao is a fkn idiot for paying the sanctioning feeds to keep that belt... f*ck that belt, when the hell will he ever defend that piece of shit anyways
I think Bob Arum payed the fee for him...

Indeed. It's embarrassing, and in theory it's them admitting that the holder of their title isn't really the best fighter in the division. We all know that to be true but it goes against the entire foundation of the commissions and what their ranking systems are supposed to mean. Not that Sulaiman and co. give a shit about protecting its champions, not as long as six figures are coming their way from whoever they decide to whore the diamond belt to.
I agree with you man... When Floyd was the WBC champion before he left NONE of this stuff popped up, BUT since Berto is basically the lesser known in the division with their title they gotta put their name back at the top with ANOTHER type of way...
Suiliman is a crooked piece of sh1t. he once charged Pavlik a $25k sanctioning fee for a non-title, over the weight fight against Taylor.
wow is this true?
I also feel that it downgrades Berto as the WBC champion as well... Like his title is 2nd hand now...

Is not a championship, it is a trophy... It is rewarded to huge fights that does not have a major title on the line. But, is no championship, it does not have any rankings. You can not lose the belt. So basically it is just a trophy that you to pay a fee to get though...
WOW what a WASTE of time and MONEY... Who wants to pay for a trophy that THEY'VE won??? I bet that mess wont be around too much longer... its even worse then the WBA's SUPER CHAMPION
