Floyd Mayweather Jr. To Remain as WBC 147-Pound Champ?

[THE REED]

WBC still wants their payday

[Silencers]

Mayweather isn't retiring, not for good anyway.

he'll be back when he realizes boxing is his only talent

World Boxing Council President Jose Sulaiman says that Floyd Mayweather Jr. will stay in place as the welterweight champion until he himself personally confirms his retirement to the sanctioning body [details]

Suliman isn't giving up on future BIG sancioning fees just yet.

[FLYBOY]

Maybe because a sanctioning body refuses to strip a fighter who never made a defense of the title against a single ranked welterweight under the WBC. Even after announcing his retirement, they still refuse to strip him.

exactly... this is bull****.... i mean how obvious is this for WBC to show the world what it really cares about... money.

What sanctioning fees? If the guy is not defending the belt, the organization makes no money. There is no money for the WBC to make if he fights De La Hoya at 150. Since 2006, he only paid fees on one fight, with Hatton. If anything they are losing money by allowing the belt to stay with "Money"

According to The Ring magazine, WBC made Pavlik pay $25,000 in sanctioning fees for his rematch against Taylor, even though it was held at 166 and the belt wasn't on the line. I don't know if they charged Floyd a similar fee for his fight against De La Hoya, but if they did this would make a lot more sense. Especially if it's done as a percentage of the purse...

ugly boy mayweather jr. will announce he is fighting again if oscar and ugly old floyd splits. ugly boy doesn't want his ugly old father to get some fat cash out of his fighting delahoya.

ugly old floyd knows how to "decode" the shoulder roll defense of ugly boy.

this is ugly boy floyd's worst nightmare.
