Comments Thread For: Canelo is Being Pressured To Pick One Title Belt

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The World Boxing Council, which last year adapted the policy of not allowing their champions to hold titles from a rival sanctioning body, appears to be placing some pressure on WBC/WBA junior middleweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (42-0-1, 30KOs) to give up one of his titles.

Edison Reynoso, Director of Canelo Promotions and part of the boxer's management, denied the circulating rumors that Canelo vacated his WBC title. The rumors began when the WBA announced that Canelo would be traveling to Panama to pick up his championship. The boxer, Edison and Chepo Reynoso will travel to Panama on Tuesday to officially receive the title which Canelo captured from Austin Trout in April.

It's the WBA. He's gonna pick the WBC. It's the Mexican sanctioning bodies belt.

Ring magazine is by no means perfect. But their title and championship policy IMO is so much better than the ABC clowns it isn't even funny. And articles like this one futher hammers home that opinion. That's why in my lil boxing universe, I basically only recognize The Ring and lineal titles as legit, with very few exceptions.

What?? These sanctioning bodies are becoming ridiculous. Looks like they're trying to do away with unified champs, thus making it impossible to become undisputed.

These belts are meaningless. The WBC continues to be the biggest joke. Canelo at this point does not need them

We be crooks.

Seems like the WBC is the one pushing it. Those guys are some of the biggest crooks in boxing.

It's time a boxer stands his ground. They do this because they know boxers won't spend lawyer money and will simply go public with it and since we as a society have an attention span that last about as long as it takes to read a headline they think it'll blow over. Seriously I think all promoters should take 1% of their earnings unify and address the issues within boxing in court..it's time to straighten out boxing because the rankings and the organizations that represent these rankings has gotten out of hand.
