Jose Sulaiman: "I want to institute a WBC silver world championship"

WBC: "Too many interim belts"



WBC President Jose Sulaiman has expressed concern on the free way that boxing organizations are using the approval of interim championships, when they should be used strictly when a champion leaves a title inactive for medical or legal problems. He plans to present a recommendation to the WBC Governors at the coming 48th annual convention to be held in Cancun, Mexico, from November 7 to the 13, in regards to instituting a WBC silver world championship, in substitution of an interim championship “that does not represent a real title, when it is approved only for a fight without real significance.”

Sulaiman needs to leave boxing and never come back... I wish Manny would of won that diamond belt and then spit on it and threw it in the crowd... Sulaiman is a fkn idiot i can't stand that *******

I hope this ******* dies, one of the slimiest guys in boxing.

He does not want to add another title he wants to substitute an interim belt for this new one with new rules. I still hope he falls and breaks something.

no, no, NO! I dont like interim championships to begin with. Just strip a mofo if he cant/wont defend.

and can anyone tell me exactly when this whole interim thing started? I first remember it in the late 90's involving the LHW division and RJJ-Rocchigiani (I think). I mean, they didnt do the interim thing with Foreman when he wouldnt defend his belts, they just stripped him.

any info would be appreciated, tx
