Not exaggerating. WBO states they will simply take and give Charlo's belt to Tim Tszyu immediately after the Charlo-Canelo fight. They said they will "let" Charlo walk out with his belt to call himself the champ before the fight and then immediately just gift it away to Tim.
This means that if Crawford wanted to become unified 154 champ he would have to fight BOTH Charlo and Tim..... weird WBO decided this in the last two days after all this talk of Crawford- Charlo being possible. What a joke.

WBC pulled the same bullchit antics for Bivol-Canelo at 168 saying they would "not allow" canelo to defend his WBC title against Bivol (the one he defended against amazing challengers like John Ryder), this move would prevent Bivol from being a two weight 4 belt unified champ..... Its a move to protect canelo and it hurts the sports credibility because it prevents Bivol from reaching two weight champ, they made it impossible for him on their own whim.
