New WBO Pres Olivieri implemented a new rule which states if you turn down a world title shot, you get removed from rankings. Hamzah Sheeraz has now officially been removed from the WBO rankings after turning down Janibek.

It is a good rule. However if Sheeraz does fight Adames that is still a big step up and a big fight for him at this stage and a world title so the purse bid pull out won't seem as bad as a lot of others. -

The alphabet soup is quite a joke and corrupt as eff, but that being said this is definitely a great rule IMO.
In all honesty, I won't mind if this becomes the norm for all organizations along with IBF's 10 lbs rehydration limit rule if anything.Comment
