[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

World Boxing Council President Mauricio Sulaiman has been forced to take action in light of the latest injury suffered by Keith Thurman. Thurman, who holds the WBC, WBA welterweight titles, has been inactive since last March - when he won a twelve round split decision over Danny Garcia to unify the two world titles.

I highly doubt swift can beat porter, although I didn't think bum time could either.

Are the WBC turning into a promotional company? I have never seen a belt organization get this involved in making fights and comments as much as the WBC prez! I would love to see Porter/Garcia but these fighters need to stop getting pimp by these belt organizations!

Good. This should've been done. And strip Thurman while you're at it.

On the WBC side kudos for functioning like an actual sport. Thurman Hostage situation may be averted.

Porter Vs Garcia is a great fight. Let’s see it!!! Hopefully the winner of these guys won’t go into semi-retirement once they have the belt. The bar is way too low for these new champions.

Good.. Really hope this gets made

Ughh, hate watching porter "box". Wish we could just get Garcia vs Spence instead.

Great fight. It’s a 50/50 fight & should have been made from the beginning with the winner getting the fight vs. Thurman. I never had interest in seeing Thurman fight both Porter & Garcia again. Thurman should get his tuneup in the summer, than fight the winner of this fight in the Winter, than fight Spence in the first quarter of 2019.

Interim? This should be for the actual title. WBC can't do anything right these days.

I didn’t think Keith should have been stripped until I heard why he was pulling out. A bruise... a ***ing bruise. Porter v. Garcia should be for the outright title.
