    Lol no titles for Salka if he wins and now (I'm assuming) Danny doesn't have to pay any sanctioning fees. More money in his pocket. DSG coming out on top regardless!!!

            If you beat the champion, regardless of how the fight comes about, you are the champion. I'm all for canceling the fight, but if it's going to happen then it is unfair. The WBC/WBA should strip Danny for taking such a fight, and not reward him by guaranteeing he will be the champion regardless of his performance. Even if he loses he can still get big money fights just because of those belts.

It's all empty words, and their attempt at setting an example falls flat on its face. After the fight he's only going to vacate anyway and move up to WW, leaving the LWW division no closer to being unified.
                He already kept the belts after losing to Herrera, what's one more fake champion in this sport?

                      Salute to Teddy Atlas for standing up for the sport. Now the bigger picture is, do we have a Garcia who is shot? Or just needs to go up in weight a division? He's had some serious challenges lately, and the Herrera fight seemed to take its toll. We'll see in the next couple fights how he is, that is AFTER the Salka fight.

                      Funny thing about this, years back in boxing, up until maybe the 50s/60s, non-title bouts were very common for champions. Not so much these days.
