Yes. But this point is reached by less than 1% of all fighters.
Whoever here on NSB screams sanctioning bodies are no sht, are simply fanboys of those divas who don't need belts. For all other boxers, i.e. for 99 and more % belts matter; for them belts are a currency, it's a ticket for paydays, especially if they don't have a big fanbase. If not for the belts, GGG would have never gotten Canelo. Whoever doesn't agree with this status quo is clueless.Comment

Idiot. GGG would have never reached this point if he didn't own the division by collecting 3/4 belts. For him belts matter because he doesn't have any other leverage. Because of GGG's pressure for the belt, Canelo vacated it, and normal Mexican boxing fans (not ****** like you) were upset with him. Not a belt but the shameful outcome of the belt story for Canelo is what made this fight, this was GGG's leverage. Idiot.Comment

I don't mind fighters dumping belts, as long as they are taking on the best opposition.
When they dump them to run away from a fight, it just looks desperate. Since Canelo and GGG is happening, then I don't care too much about the belts side of it. It's not ducking, so I don't care. It might be diva stuff, who knows. The fight is what matters.Comment

Yeah?
Because, like GGG trying to force a purse bid with Canelo .. just saying it makes it true, even if it's false?
When I have to resort to changing my user name to hide from the embarrasment of being caught out multiple times posting lies, then you can talk Robbie/Isaaac/Paulie/CaneloMaidana, etc etc ..Last edited by kafkod; 08-02-2017, 06:22 AM.Comment

Hey well done! You learned how to post a link that works!
That's a link to an article about the WBC rules. Here's a link to the WBC rules themselves. Click it and you will see that the rule Steve Kim was talking about in his article, giving an interim champion 45% of the puse if it goes to a bid, is not there any more. It was removed in 2014.
2.17 Division of Proceeds in a Purse Offer.
The net purse offer (after deduction of all sanction
fees payable to the WBC hereunder) shall be divided as follows:
(a) 70% for the champion and 30% for the challenger in title bouts; and
(b) 50% to each contender in the case of vacant titles or elimination bouts;
provided, however, that the WBC Board of Governors, may by a majority vote, authorize a
modification of the division of purse offer proceeds between boxers in a purse offer in
unusual or special cases, such as consideration
of outstanding marketing value of one of the
boxers, as the WBC shall determine in its sole discretion. The modification of the split
shall be limited to 60-40% and 55-45%, except
in the most exceptional circumstances, in
which the split may be modified to 50-50%

and you act like he didn't know from the second he signed to fight cotto that ggg was the mandatory then and took step aside money to allow that fight to happen. Instead of fighting ggg next, he fought khan as a voluntary. Wbc allowed khan of all people to fight for a mw belt when he was a beltless welter weight. Canelo and his team could've negotiated with ggg during the lead up to the khan fight( to avoid a purse bid) just like they apparently did during the build up to the Chavez jr fight. But they didn't want to fight ggg then. Why is it so hard for you Canelo fans to just admit that they didn't really want the fight before? They didn't feel Canelo was ready but now, after 2 ggg fights where he's shown vulnerability, while Canelo has had convincing wins during the same time frame (albeit ve mediocre competition) they now feel the time is right.Comment
