    Edwin Valero ranked number 1 by WBC

    The winner of Santa Cruz vs. Pitalúa fight will face WBC number one ranked lightweight contender Edwin Valero of Venezuela in the interim championship fight by the end of the year.

    What has Valero done at 135 to earn a title shot? Much less be ranked number 1 contender.

        What had Guzman done to deserve the crack at Campbell?

          David Haye is ranked 5th (I think) by the WBC at Heavyweight.

          After 2 World Title fights.

            LMAO!
            It doesn't make any ****en sense, especially since Valero has been a WBA fighter not a WBC fighter.
            Guzman got a shot at Campbell through the WBO rankings i believe, seeing as he was number one at the weight class beneath (correct me if im wrong).
            All the WBC is trying to do is line him up to fight Pacquiao.

              To be honest, he's just as legitimate as Pitalua. He's never beaten anyone resembling a lightweight contender.

                BUT he has fought for wbc latino titles or whatever making him ranked. Valero has no ties to the wbc. I know i sound nit picky but this isnt fair for other fighters who have been working their way up and Valero comes in ranked 1

                  It is ****** it's Vitali coming back as the number 1 condender instead of the fighter working there way up to a title shot, Haye coming in at number 5 when he unified a division below theoretically he should be ranked number 1 because he unified the division below Valero picked up a piece of the title, Guzman as well etc. It's proberbly all about the money each fighter will rake in.

                  The WBC will be able to charge more on commision fees on Valero because he will bea bigger draw than the other contenders because he's exciting etc.
