Cotto is slick when it came to negotiating this perfectly. At the same time the WBC ****ed up due to the fact that they stripped him disqualifying the notion of him even paying the sanction fees because technically he's not the mandatory from what I'm getting I'm no NSB expert lawyer.

Nobody was able to answer me that apart from the "He beat Rubio for the interim belt"....... I have never seen this happen before, where a champion of another organisation is made a mandatory of another organisation, if that isnt corruption then i dont know what it is then.

Corruption is the alphabet boys refusing to rank champions of rival organisations or share the sanctioning fees in unification fights.

But you want to criticise the WBC for installing other champions as a WBC mandatory? That's a clear indication that your bias against a certain fighter has gone way too far.
Btw, if you want to get smart about it, the WBC President reserves the right to install any fighter as a 'special circumstance' for the WBC title. Its there to allow for megafights where the rules usually wouldnt allow them to happen. I despise most of the practices of the WBC, but give them credit where its due. The Wlad/Wilder, Kovalev/Stevenson and GGG/Cotto scenarios haven't been made more difficult by the WBC, even where theres a possibilty its in their political/financial interest to do so..
As for the thread, the entire sport of professional boxing is financially motivated.

1. It resolved the Rubio complaint of the Chavez non-drug test issue
2. It allowed Martinez-Cotto to proceed
It would have worked itself out, but of course Queen Cotto wouldnt do the mando with Rubio and wasted 6 months screwing around with the initial Canelo negotiations that went nowhere......Last edited by OnePunch; 11-19-2015, 01:58 PM.

Cotton is a fraud and a scared little beech plain and simple. Why doesn't he just come out and say I want a mayweather rematch and I have no interest in fighting GGG. He would obviously be ducking him but at least he can be given credit for coming out and speaking the truth
