    Who fights for Floyd's vacant belts

    So floyd is vacating all his belts, who fights for the belts?

    Correct me if I'm wrong but floyd has:

    WBC welter
    Wba welter
    Wbo welter

    WBC jr middle
    WBA jr middle


    Who fights for these belts????

        I think thurman is a given for one of the welter belts, but not sure who he fights..

        This will actually rejuvenate a lot of guys career's like Bradley, Porter, ghost, maidana, Devon, etc because with 3 vacant belts that is 6 spots for title fights..

            Khan will probably go for the WBC if he doesn't get Floyd

              Pretty sure Thurman's the top contender for the WBA and Khan is somewhere in the top 2 for the WBC. Pac probably gets the WBO back in his next fight.

              I don't know what's happening at 154.

                Interesting thing will be if pbc comes out with their own belts, and all Haymon fighters not going for the sanctioning bodies' belts...

                  Well Thurman and Lara are already WBA 147 and 154 regular champs. Floyd was the super champion above them. Now they'll just be the sole champions.

                  WBO 147 will go to a Top Rank fighter because the WBO is in Arum's pocket.

                  WBC 147 and 154 depends on their rankings.

                    Just checked the rankings... My best guess

                    WBC jr middle--- charlo vs mundine

                    WBA jr middle. - canelo- clottey

                    WBO welter-- Bradley-rios

                    WBC welter- khan-decaire or maybe Maidana 2

                    WBA welter- Thurman (regular) vs Berto (interm)
