    Comments Thread For: Luis Nery Removed As WBC Bantamweight Mandatory Challenger

    The latest scale snafu by Luis Nery not only cost him a lucrative fight, but also a guaranteed second shot at the bantamweight title. The undefeated former 118-pound king was removed from his mandatory ranking with the World Boxing Council (WBC), BoxingScene.com was informed on Wednesday. The ruling-which was first reported by ESPN Deportes' Salvador Chava' Rodriguez-came shortly after the knockout artist from Tijuana, Mexico-who turns 25 in December-failed to make weight for his eventually canceled clash with fellow former titlist Emmanuel Rodriguez which was due to take place Nov. 23 on a Fox Sports Pay-Per-View undercard live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada

    Just go to 122 and move on. These fighters need to listen to their bodies before somebody gets seriously hurt either way 🥊

        This decision must have hurt the WBC greatly. But Kudos to them anyways.

            Good. Nery's unprofessionalism should have consequences.

            It's nice to see the WBC punish him with something significant.

                The WBO would have made a Rican interim champion under the same circumstances. Good for the WBC.

                  But wait a minute. Not 4 months ago this guy was being called a Top 10 across weight class fighter, aka Top 10 P4P.

                  Are you saying that Luis Nery is an 'eye test' fighter that is basically a weight bully...?

                    Freddie Roach said Nery is the next Pacman that can compete in bigger weights. He needs not fear the big guys like former flyweight champ Pacman!?
