    Why didn't the WBC Order a rematch between Valdez and Robson when it was a robbery to many? Plus a failed drug test involved.

      Same reason they are ordering it now. Before, they didn't order it when he got robbed because he's got no pull and the money people wanted Valdez/Navarrete to be champion. Now they ARE calling the rematch because the money guys want Foster to be champ. It's not about justice, it's about who they think they can make money from.

        I was thinking they wanted the rematch for Navarrete vs Conceicao for Unified Champion. WBC vs WBO champ at 130.

            Nobody gives AF about Navarrete. He's too undisciplined to even make weight.

              Honestly I thought Conceicao won the fight, he was busier and aggressive, regardless of compubox, and am I the only one that thinks Navarrete is a terrible boxer, I know he’s won titles but man his style is terrible on the eyes.

                What money people want Foster to be champ? Certainly not Bob Arum.

                The robbery was just so blatant that they have no choice but to order the rematch, otherwise they would look bad with the public.

                  He still he WBO Champ. He got a Split decion at a new weight. But Yes, he is Undiplinded with his diet. That Mexican soda is addictive and Mexican food doesn't taste good without Coke. I think if he was more discipline he wouldn't be as akward, which is one his attributes. Probably a couple more fight and he is done, he already said he was retiring young specially with hand issues

                    It’s great if it does inspire more Brazilians. The favelas are full of impoverished kids that should be finding their ways into boxing gyms especially in the north of the country. That still doesn’t change the fact that this was legal robbery
