Hah, I just read 33% and assumed you were dumb. Tbh, I didn't care enough about Jamal to even click on his threads/read articles - But this is some real BS. F that crap too! Although, I'll check WBO rules and see if they just made it up for this fight.Last edited by M312; 01-10-2022, 03:43 PM.Comment

This literally proves my point…Comment

It’s been explained to you repeatedly that there’s also another WBC rule stating that they can do whatever they want. As I posted, the rule might be crap but it’s there.
I’m done. Choose to ignore it and keep ranting if you choose.Comment

You say it as if that's ok. It's not.
You don't have to accept the nonsense.
I don't know Dillians real motivation, but if he appeals and wins it's only good for boxing.Comment

Correct that it doesn't talk about modifying in favour of the champion beyond 70%. The rules have a minimum of 30% for the mandatory (which the interim champ is treated as for the purposes of purse splits). That's why there's no rule.
There is absolutely no circumstance, even if the mandatory challenger was Canelo or Mike Tyson, where you can give the mandatory more than 50%. That is what rule 2.16 is addressing. Rule 2.16 doesn't deal at all with what the split would be if you modify in favor of the champion.
The rules cover the splits. The possible splits under their rules are covered in 2.16.
Then they have a rule (2.6) that says they can modify whatever they like with regard to purse splits. Then they have a rule (1.1) that says they can do whatever they want in any area.
Could a champion get more than 70%? Or a challenger get more than 50%? Yes in theory they could if the WBC ruled that way. Under 1.1 or 2.6. Anything goes.
You're relying on a rule that says they can do anything they want. And pretending that it's for a specific, considered circumstance. It's not. It's a general catch all rule.Last edited by Toffee; 01-10-2022, 09:52 PM.Comment

Your tune has changed. First it was the WBC violated their own rules (you’re wrong). Now it’s you say their rules are nonsense (you’re right).Comment

I haven't changed my tune. There's a rule in place for splits that has been ignored in favour of a rule that is basically 'we can ignore any of our rules'. I'm not a lawyer, but I'm not sure how lawful these rules that say we can ignore rule X to do whatever we want are. That's why I'd be happy for Dillian to complete the abritration. If he loses, so be it. If he wins... Just helps make boxing a better place. We should all support the fight against it - you agree it's nonsense tooComment
