The WBC is ordering Victor Postol to fight Lucas Matthysse for the WBC super lightweight championship.

Vargas-Ali was also mandatory. Ali was the mandatory for Bradley actually, but Bradley vacated so Arum could have him fight Pac for a third time, even though no one wanted it. Then Arum had his gatekeeper fight for a title.
You are right though, Arum did allow Crawford to fight Molina, a fight where Crawford was a huge favorite.
Mandatories and near sure-fire wins do not count.
I hope I am wrong, but I guarantee Bradley and Vargas will fight a TR opponent next or an opponent in there just to keep them busy. (Bradley might be retired, word is wifey say's no more fighting and she is the boss.)Comment

Khan might be irritating outside the ring but he's far from a bum fighter and has a respectable resume.
he beat Kotelnik (the guy that gave Maidana his first loss), Malignaggi (coming off the Juan Diaz win), Maidana (27 years old, that's not "green" with 90% KO ratio), Judah (on a five fight winning streak, including beating Matthysse), Peterson (hometown robbery), Collazo (coming off the Victor Ortiz KO. many were picking him to win, read old articles), Devon Alexander, Chris Algieri.
that's a solid resume. he hasn't done sht at 147 but at 140 Khan was the truth.Comment
