    What a logical post.

    hes fighting Shane Mosley but hopefully afterwards he wont have to defend against the likes of Vyacheslav Senchenko, Souleymane M'baye, Antonin Decarie, Hector David Saldivia, Said Ouali....etc.

        Mayweather doesn't want the belt because he doesn't want to have to fight who the WBA or any other sanctioning body wants him to fight. Floyd doesn't want to fight the young, hungry kid who has come up through the ranks and is rated the #1 contender. Floyd only wants to fight big money fights. He can say belts only collect dust all he wants but in reality he is really saying screw mandatory title defenses. I want to fight who I want, where I want, when I want, for this amount of $$$....

        All of you guys who feel more fighters should follow suit obviously don't care about the young, upcoming fighters either. How are they going to get title shots when no one wants to fight them? The system we currently have that ranks the fighters forces the champions to have to defend their belts against these challengers. I think that the sanctioning organizations need to be revamped and the ranking system obviously needs to be tweeked (how can a fighter be ranked by one organization and not ranked by another) but feel the way things are done now is good for the sport. Prizefighters fight for purses (money) but the main goal should still be to get to the top of your division and win the hardware (belts). If this is your goal you're going to make money. You can still fight other challengers that might not be your mandatories because you only have a few mandatories a year and have plenty of time to schedule big money non-mandatory showdowns.
        Brilliant second paragraph. The phrase 'title fight' no longer means a damn thing anymore and all the sport has left to sell are names. The names fight the other names and the young crop of fighters are left in the dust. I can't blame Floyd or any other fighter for not wanting to make mandatory defenses for a title no one gives a **** about, the entire system needs an overhaul. Unfortunately, with the money still ending up in the pockets of the commissions they certainly don't care who's fighting for their belts.

The WBA's welterweight title will only be at stake for Mosley, because Mayweather has refused to pay the necessary sanctioning fees. [Click Here To Read More]
            Not a surprise soon as the fight was made May said he didn’t want the belt cuz all they do is collect dust. I thought he would change his mind but he stuck to his world, plus May like those green belts (WBC)

                Cmon guys really? Don't we know Mayweather by now? It's obvious he doesnt want the belt cause he would have to defend it against whomever the sanctioning body tells him to. And thas not how Floyd does his ussual business of hand picking opponents. Could you imagine if Floyd won the WBA belt and all of the sudden the WBA rates PWill as the #1 contender? Can you imagine Floyds face if that would happen?

                  He couldn't do that.

                  He'd be stripped for not fighting some random mandatory within the time it would take him to fight all 3 of those guys(Should he beat all 3).
