Comments Thread For: WBO Waits For Mayweather's Decision, Tim Bradley Looms

If the WBO is a POS belt, then drop it. What's the issue?

... Stop harassing Floyd!
He already defended his 154 belts against Gatti, back in 2005!..................

Easy decision, keep the 200K, drop the belt, and then schedule Tim Bradley as the next fight, Win it back then retire with it...

Makes no sense at all. Just like Cotto refusing to sign the agreement to fight GGG after Canelo when he says that he will fight him when asked. If you will, then why not sign the ****ing paper?

Why should Floyd not vacate his 154 titles if he has no plans to defend them?

Because thats a belt Arum usually controls, and its just to kick him in the nuts one more time. Beat their champion (#48), take their belt, and dont pay them a dime, when they know you just made over 200 Mil.

Mayweather should drop the 154 belts, then unify against Brook. Retire the lineal undisputed welterweight champ.

I don't like this rule. Instead of not being able to hold titles from multiple organization bodies, it should be that you can't hold on to multiple titles in different weight classes. I don't think he plans on defending those 154 titles, so those should be dropped. Now if he would defend the 147 titles in one fight and then the 154 titles his next fight and so on and so forth, then I would say keep all the titles. Fight fans love to see a fighter unify all the titles. I wish all of the organizations just combine into one so that there is only one champ.

Floyd will be stripped on monday

Floyd will be stripped on monday

He should be stripped today then if the deadline is today. In other words, that gives floyd a few more days to say he is fighting Brook. If he says that before Monday, they will let him keep the belt. The WBO only wants to hear that he is fighting Brook. They would strip him if he chose anyone that wasn't brook or bradley. What is messed up is that the WBO won't let Floyd celebrate July 4th weekend without a decision.
