    I know and like you said he might have to go to st' louis or wherever devon comes from on a Don King card to fight his mandatory which my be dangerous for bradley and i think thats why they kind of pass on that fight.

    On Alexander's performance against Rodriguez i dont think Bradley see's anything he could not deal with.

    I dont think its fear of what devon bring in the ring, Team bradley probably didnt want to go into a Don king promoted fight since Showtime doesnt seem interested in the fight.

        To me this is the worst case of this type crap in a while. They didn't even give him a chance to make the defense, they simply stripped him because they didn't want unification. There was that article on here about it a few weeks ago, their reasoning was that unification relinquishes power from the organizations.

        We wouldn't want to do that now.

          They didn't pass on anything. The WBC simply gave him an ultimatum to choose one belt. Their reasoning was that they don't want unification.

          I say the boxing world flips this on them. Promoters and boxers should boycott the WBC to lessen their claim as a credible organization. We need to start cutting some of these orgs loose at some point.
