Comments Thread For: Mauricio Sulaiman Not Interested in Taking Over WBC

[Tomasio]

He made it sound like the things he did he could have done differently but was following his dad's orders & that it could run better under someone else(in which many have agreed for a long time).. The organism should NOT be just handed to him cause he the organisim's presidents(in this case, expresidents) son like if it was some sort of monarchy, they should nominate potential candidates & then vote in the next president..

Was it just me or did his son just admit his dad ran the WBC badly the last couple of years.

" everything that people saw that I did was on the orders of my father....."

" the WBC will be different and hopefully better....."

It could be a mistranslation or I'm just reading too much into this, but this sounds to me like he's saying pretty much that his father didn't run the WBC well, and he was forced to go along with him out of respect to him.
Hopefully this means they'll get people with integrity to run that organization and bring it back to prominence.

I kinda got the same vibe.... Not bashing his father but saying he hopes it gets better is a subtle way of saying he thinks it could've been run better.

It's YOU...... you just made a perfect example of taking something out of context and propagandising with it.... it stinks.

He was saying the usual sort of thing in the circumstances. He was there and saw everything done, he did what he did at the behest of his father "....WHO WAS A GREAT GENERATOR OF IDEAS AND ALWAYS THINKING OF WAYS TO INNOVATE THE SPORT..."

He was paying compliments to the dead father, giving him credit for all the improvements and new ideas which improved the system. And it is true that new concepts which are in use today came from the WBC which were then followed by the other organisations. And he was saying the usual thing in these circumstances, that "things are good and we hope that they'll get even better".

Only malicious souls would see it differently.

Nothing Malicious about questioning what he said... He clearly wasnt 100% sure whether he read it wrong or it was mistranslated... when i first read it i thought the same thing until he went on to compliment his father...

I think your malicious soul is taking it overboard.

Oops.. Continued.. He's hoping for capable hands to take over and keep the organisation moving forward. You're reaching, to say the least.

[AndMarvisIsDown]

No he's not saying that. You're just twisting it out of context and implying that all by yourself. He's complimenting his father's efforts and hoping for capable hands to take over and keep the organisati

It's high time that the WBC moved away from the Mexican mafia!

[Lou Cipher]

Why not Mauricio? It's quite simple. The Klitchkos handle all of the heavyweight rankings. Al Haymon handles everything else. All you have to do is keep your wang sucker shut, pay for $250 belts to be manufactured and sell them for between 50k and 5 million, and occasionally fine fighters 100's of thousands of dollars for stuff that has nothing to do with you.

in all honesty, if dana white took over, hell make everyone fight lol

Duran s just a LW , really, & h fought & beat almost all..1 round from beating Hagler, laziness & not anting 2make weight beats many legends...Leonard didn't fight the class of guys Roberto did if you remove hager/hearns...

Interesting...he may only be saying this to legitimise his position, i.e he wasn't only going to get the job because of his father.

Unfortunately I can't see any good coming for the time being. A new leader has to make his territory, and within a sanctioning body could spell disaster for the sport (a new championship maybe?)

In its current form, the WBC only has interests for itself
