Comments Thread For: Canelo vs. Chavez Jr. - WBC President is on Board, Loves The Fight

maybe because it was never ordered. Wbc said if amir khan decides to take a pass on his mandatory shot, then top rank asked the wbc for bradley to be involved in a final eliminator against the "highest ranked, available" contender. That could be spence, that could be someone else. And the fight would never happen.

Spence has a guaranteed title shot against a hot name, why would he pay the wbc a sanctioning fee for a final eliminator.

of course it has been ordered! Which planet have you been living on? Just because he is brooks mandatory does not mean wbc cant put him in a title eliminator against bradley......

They are doing him a favor by giving him more options....

This way he will also be the mandatory for the danny vs thurman winner......

Sanctioning fees is not something spence is worried about....

Cotto just made a hude deal out it to distract dumb ass fans from his obvious ducking of ggg

I saw the WBC official release from the convention. Spence vs. Bradley was never mentioned.

In fact Spence was never mentioned.

This statement was officially released by the WBC themselves. It was NEVER ordered and Bradley himself has yet to commit to even taking part in a final eliminator.

Garcia has a title unification fight against WBA champion Keith Thurman scheduled for March 4. No. 1 ranked mandatory challenger Amir Khan of Great Britain has asked the WBC for time to consider his mandatory status. If Khan gives up his mandatory status, the WBC asked promoter Carl Moretti to find out if No. 2 ranked Timothy Bradley Jr. of the United States is interested in participating in a final eliminator against the highest available contender. Moretti said that he will report Bradley’s decision to the WBC in one week.

The only quality fight Canelo has had since recently signing with HBO was against Cotto and that's a fact.

I don't like this fight... not because of the stipulations involved. I don't like this fight because I don't want this f u c k i n g disappointment messing up GGG-Canelo. I was the biggest Chavez Jr fan for a long time. I remember buying that Chavez-Cuello Top Rank PPV in 2009. I lost my **** when he ALMOST knocked out Sergio Martinez in the last round. I was at the StubHub Center when he quit against Fonfara. I would've loved this fight 3 years ago (and would've been rooting for JR) but not now. I don't wanna give this lazy f u c k the chance to put it together for one night and derail the fight we've all been looking towards. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr doesn't deserve that opportunity. If he wants to fight the loser of Saul vs Gennady, by all means... he shouldn't be anywhere near those 2 before they fight.

Umm Canelo has only fought like 3 times on HBO since resigning??? GGG hasn't had a QUALITY fight since his Amateur days and that's a FACT.

[Shadoww702]

Just think Jr. Knocked out the 4-5 best MW in 7 rounds.... The same one who barely lost by MD to Saunders lol. MW is a JOKE SHT division.
