This sucks.

The guy on twitter said Nishioka didn't want to defend his title on time because he's expecting a bigger fight. As Emeritus champ, he'll be able to fight for the title again anytime he wants apparently.

so its donaires fault

[RlCKY]

What's next? They gonna strip Vitali and find some reason to give the title to Arreola? Find the top mexican/mexican american at every division. If they aren't already, they will be champ by the end of the year

I like Mares...but WTF WBC!

[DoktorSleepless]

To be fair, according to boxing scene's article, Nishioka requested the Emeritus champ status.

this is so gay. whats the point of having boxers fight for contention if they can award a title fight for who ever. Morel is not even ranked in the top 10 in his divison but now he gets a title shot. The WBC is shaming the sport of boxing one paper champion at a time.
