    You’re saying Mbilli is ducking Morrell?

          Maybe WBA has severed relations with Luis Decubas who had ties with WBA since time immemorial.

              If canelo decides to fight benavidez or Morell jr first, then he can fight sulaiman for all I care

                Morell jr still the WBA regular belt holder, I think berlanga has became the mandatory for the Cuban

                  Yes. He has been #1 with the WBA for long enough, while Morrell has been defending that the WBA rules guarantee he'd have been offered a mandatory shot before they'd have ordered a mandatory against a lower ranked opponent. There's at least been two occasions that Morrell fought someone lower ranked as a mandatory while Mbilli didn't have a fight scheduled. That means Mbilli turned the fight down at least two times. Morrell has defended 6 times. Mbilli should have fought him for a title instead of Rohan Murdock.

                    Instead of mandating what would have been a good fight for the fans they mandate a far lesser one.
                    Plus it actually can get done and would be PBC but MatchRoom & PBC I don't believe it
