how would that be better than current orgs?many Pbc fighters are happy to face cans as long as they can sell fights as being for a belt(like every other promoters basically also) & Haymon would surely basically make it be a belt for black american fighters over all others.

So let's break this down for the simpletons. Wbc contacted team Canelo and said, hey, Charlo has been the mandatory for quite some time. Any chance Canelo faces Charlo soon? Team Canelo says, nope, no chance, we're going in another direction. Wbc president says, damn, last time we tried to enforce a mandatory on Canelo that he didn't want to face, he threw a hissy fit, gave us back our belt and wouldn’t even entertain fighting for our piñata belt that we created for his fight with Chavez Jr. We don't really want to lose out on those pay days. Let's give him this pretend forever title just to keep him happy, award our mandatory challenger the actual title and everyone will be happy. The end.Comment

To be fair I don't mind it IF the fighter is a guy like Canelo. He has almost always challenged himself and took fights people thought he wouldn't. Have to fight bull**** mandos at times is dumb the way people are ranked or get stripped instead of going after bigger more important fights. Is it weird and silly yes... but if Canelo keeps on pace fighting the fights he's been I'll support him.Comment

If this absolves Canelo from any mandatories he doesn't want to fight, then I guess that's what it's about.
He controls his own career now and Sulaimán doesn't want to fall out with him again and miss out on the Canelo money.
I wouldn't be surprised if Wilder is made Franchise champ and Whyte is bumped up to standard champ status if he beats Rivas.
Sulaiman keeping his main guys sweet.Last edited by Chrismart; 06-26-2019, 08:31 PM.Comment

Hmm..
The WBC may award a Diamond Championship belt in those fights in which the Franchise Champion engages. If the Franchise Champion loses, the winner will receive the Diamond belt and may be considered as mandatory contender of the division.Comment

And this is when one would think that Suleiman's tongue can't get any further into Canelo. My hat to you, sir, you proved me wrong.
Legend says that if you look carefully into Alvarez's throat you might see Mauricio's tongue.Comment
