    Comments Thread For: Lomachenko Named WBC "Franchise" Champ, Haney Upgraded To Full

    It's not the way he wanted to earn the distinction, but Devin Haney is officially boxing's youngest title claimant. The unbeaten 20-year old lightweight was upgraded from interim to full World Boxing Council 135-pound champion, without having to step foot in the ring. The ruling came Wednesday afternoon during the ratings review portion of the WBC annual convention in Cancun, Mexico. Haney's upgrade came as a result of unified and now former WBC titlist Vasiliy Lomachenko (14-1, 10KOs) being named as the sanctioning body's "Franchise" champion.

        Great way to avoid an embarassing loss to your 20 year old mandatory challenger.

          As a Loma fan I'm not a supporter of this. If Haney has to wait until after the IBF Mando that's fair, but this decision is just BS

                    pure ******ity by these alphabet orgs.

                    it's ok to elevate somebody as franchise champ if he at least defended his belt ten times but loma just won that belt and it was vacant when he won it.

                    they did the same thing for canelo...bunch of clowns
