    Because I see a lot of people on the forum acting like all these fights are happening just because the WBC ordered them. Teo-Martin and Stevenson-Cruz jumped out at me right away.

    Probly the ones where the Messican is in danger of losing. How many times was GRJ-Santa Cruz ordered without anything ever happening?

      The WBC ordered that? When they were title holders?

        Almost all of them, truthfully. Stevenson vs Cruz is very unlikely to happen. If they couldn't make Garcia vs Cruz, where there would likely be more money in the pot, how can they make a fight with Shakur at TopRank? Lopez vs Martin won't happen either because it disrupts Lopez's plans to fight the winner of Catterall and Taylor.

          I’d be surprised if Stevenson-Cruz happens.

          Lopez-Martin I could see happening, probably depends on the WBO title situation after Taylor-Catterall 2.

            Yup, two or three times IIRC. Here’s one of the links, damn shame Don Sillyman never stuck to his word on this.

              Cruz's daddy came out and blatantly said they are going to duck.

              He basically implied that Stevenson was the reincarnation of Team SlickBlack

                  I’m gonna say most of them don’t even come close to happening
                  That was the WBC trying to flex it’s power
