[mike1010011]

Wbc is so full of **** its not even funny. Mayweather retires,and what do they do? "That's ok Floyd,even though you retired,you can keep the belts for an additional two months".

They really need to take the 154 belts from him today. I can understand 147 since his retirement isn't official since no ones is in boxing but enough with 154

I would look at the opposite way. Floyd was dehydrated making 47' against Pacquiao... so I'd assume..he'd be moving up in weight..but then he fights Berto at 47' so I'm confused...

Not sure why a guy who is dehydrated at 47' would continue to fight at that weight..so that might be why he still wants to keep the 54' titles... he's still deciding which weight he'll fight at...

Wouldn't be shocked if Floyd shoots up to 160 and beats Triple G before moving up to 175 beating Kova and then beating Wlad at Heavyweight before retiring...

Pac vs Khan could be for that belt?

I'm sure Marquez is pissed about this news... I'm sure he was gunning for that 47 WBC title against a cherry-pick with no random-testing

Since Floyd is so dehydrated and struggling to make 47', you think when he comes back he'll fight at 54' or just move up to 160?

LOL, He will come back, agree to a catch weight then come In two pounds above the agreed upon weight and pay a $600,000 fine.

Pretty sure haymon will keep those belts with pbc

The World Boxing Council has extended the timeframe for a decision on their welterweight and junior middleweight titles.

Earlier this week, WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman said his organization would make a ruling be week's end, but the sanctioning body issued a statement on Thursday which pushes that decision all the way to the first week of November, when they hold their annual convention.

I actually agree with this.

Although..... I do not respect the WBC, so dont really care.

At first glance this seems silly, Mayweather has retired, so strip him and move on. Why would you need to wait for him to vacate when he has officially announced his retirement.

But it is about building something better.

The welters, simply wont fight each other.

Anything that could change that is beneficial to boxing.

I agree, that monster waiting for him at 154 Is to big for him......... but he can beat him.
