Comments Thread For: Josh Taylor Vacates WBC Title, Ramirez-Zepeda Ordered For Vacant Belt

[Corelone]

Taylor is smart, popularity be damned. He had to fight a murderers row to unify. Why should anybody else benefit from that? Let them strip and fight for scraps.

In the end,Taylor is STILL the man at 140. Undefeated, undisputed(regardless) and the Ring champ. Nobody should call themselves champ unless they beat him. Fcuk the wbc and wba as theyre the fcukin worst of the worst among belt orgs.

I was quite looking forward to seeing him fight Zepeda. A Catterall rematch does interest me too though, I'd like to see what Taylor does different this time around.

He won those titles and then started to complain that it was expensive to keep them. There are not superstars at his weight and the mandatories he had were not going to make him any real money. It was obvious that he was hinting that he was going to vacate.

I like Zepeda but he looks a little shop worn

Tbf it is a chunk of youre purse paying all them sanctioning fees. Plus training expenses and whatever else he just needs to rematch Catterall ASAP and then head up to 147

Yes! Time for them to go! You will never have a functioning sports organization when all the decisions are being made from everyone around the world. You have to centralize the decision making process just like the Nba Nfl Mlb Ufc and every soccer league in Europe. Regis is mad right now because he got passed over. Montana knocked out Ivan and is watching somebody get his chance at 500k. Why?? Because both you dudes aligned yourselves with MR and you got froze out of the belts. Get back to Al and Espinoza you fools and the titles will be there!

I'm not gonna get involved in the belt stuff, but Prograis and Taylor are two of my most preferred fights right now, for Davis. Why? Davis and these two have a history of verbal jabs. Some venom there. Prograis is letting that boat sail. Please be loud and talk more crap to Davis. Otherwise, STFU about these garbage belts, that not many other top fighters want. Don't come across as a pussy.

I like Regis too.

Josh already said the cat at 147, then Zepeda gets the run around, forever. Josh isn't worried about them. It's the scales, he's huge at 140.

Worse. They are not paying Josh like he's defending 5 titles. $200,000 is vacant title shot pay.

Take off 12% for the corrupt belt orgs, 30% to Arum, 10 to trainer and team, and maybe 30% tax. Will he take 50k home?

That's why boxers should not aspire to these crooked belts. They should help us real fans get rid of them. As long as boxers are crying for the current belts, like Prograis, the corruption and looting will continue. Safe your money.
