Oh, the WBC is full of ****. No doubt about that.
I had never heard of this rule that if a champion vacates to move up in weight he becomes the #1 challenger at the new weight.
But I did want to give credit to Mares and GBP for taking on a tough fight.Comment

Yea but they had me fooled. They looked like they were heading down the right path by attempting to order the Canelo - Lara. I'm no longer fooled tho, I was trying to give them the benefit of the doubt.Originally posted by Rip Chudd

Khan was ranked #2 at welterweight when the last ratings were published as well.
There's a great interview with Nacho written by Montoya (I think) and he says some funny shit about Sulaiman in it
“Yes, too much,” said Beristain. “On that TV show, [TV commentator and one of the show’s judges] Dr. Morales told [Sulaiman] I was the prosecutor and he told him, ‘You are ‘Canelo’s’ godfather.’ I said, ‘Yes, he is his godfather.’ [Morales] said, ‘And aren’t you going to give him his allowance?’ I told [Morales], ‘[Sulaiman] already gave it to [Alvarez]. He almost put the belt on his waist.’ I killed [Sulaiman] with that. People were happy. They started calling the show saying, ‘Congratulations to the prosecutor because he’s telling Sulaiman the truth.’ [Sulaiman] is a delinquent and I am the first person that tells him.”
Sulaiman is a liar. Look, one day, I was at his house and he invited me and two journalists to have coffee. I got up and saw a baseball. I grabbed it and saw it had Ted Williams’ autograph in it. I don’t know much about baseball but one of the journalists told me - the journalist already passed away - Ted Williams was a baseball legend. We heard Sulaiman was coming, so I put the baseball back and sat down. The journalist told him, ‘Mr. Sulaiman, it’s a marvel that baseball you have in there.’ Sulaiman replied, ‘Yes, because it was the first one of two...I was a pitcher and it was one of the two times I pitched a perfect game. What a liar, old man. We saw the baseball and it said ‘Ted Williams,’ had his signature but my grandfather told me, ‘Never argue with a millionaire because they buy everything with the money they have.’”“Well, if [the networks] don’t listen to [Sulaiman], the guy punishes them,” claimed Beristain. “He doesn’t like Juan Manuel Marquez and when Oscar wanted to do the fight between Juan Manuel Marquez and Barrera, [Sulaiman] said no. We were listening to the conversation. [Sulaiman] told [Oscar], ‘No, no, that fight cannot be made.’ Oscar got mad and told him, ‘Sir, then I won’t fight for the welterweight title either. Thank you.’ [Sulaiman] then said, ‘No, no, no. Wait, Oscar, wait. Juan Manuel Marquez’s fight is authorized.’Comment
