Does anybody know what is the deal with Linares and WBC Lightweight title? I've noticed that he won the title as vacant in 2014 against Prieto and then defended it twice against Mitchell and Cano. But then he fought against Crolla already for WBA title and this fight was not listed as unification. Instead Zlatichanin fought for VACANT WBC title. Why Linares vacated the title? He didn't have any fight in other divisions... What was the reason? Just didn't want to pay sanctioning fees? Or smth else?
He's the Diamond Champ ... and WBC ordered the winner of the Zlaticanin-Garcia match to face of with Linares.
Great! How many belts made from various substances are they going to make?
