Bribery has been alledged lthough TBF Ahmet Oner is a flat out crook himself so his words may perhaps be treated with a certain degree of caution, specially since it seems he's bearing grudge. Still, it's hard to find any other legitmate explanation of why the WBA might have suddenly changed their rules to make Sturm eligible for elevation.

It is worth noting that the WBA have seemed to have something of a love affair with Sturm throughout his career though including a similar - maybe worse - debacle with Fedor Chudinov at Super Middle some years later.
