The WBC's image has been dragged through the mud in recent times, not that it hasn't already been in the past.

Good for martinez, he's been getting ****ed around by the WBC for a long time. The Ring belt is the true belt anyways. Now focus on guys like Pirog.

good, drop that bullsh.it belt. i knew the BC wasnt gonna make Jr fight sergio and risk losing those big sanctioning fees that Jr. brings in. sergio is the LINEAL/ring champ anyway. and i hope rubio beats Jr's ass

Martinez shouldn't fight for the WBC ever again.

[DoktorSleepless]

He said he's relationship with the WBO is also broken. He said the WBC continued to support him while the WBO ****ed him over. But this is a business so he's not ruling out working with them again.
