People mention Kotelenik, but Amir had that fight purchased for him - now correct me if im wrong, but he never earned a straight shot at the WBA title.
Now he's got that belt, he should respect the fact that people have earned their shot need to be given it. Maybe Maidana is earning step aside money, until hopefully someone beats him and someone easier appears on the radar.
It's not just amir though, there's a few belts floating about where mandatory's are not being honoured. I think there was an argument brewing because Wlad aint honouring is.
But whilst the money rolls in, none of these sanctioning bodies care.

Big deal. Haye never earned his shot as Valuev - so what? Maidana got beaten by Kotelnik and had no right to get a straight fight for the ridiculous "interim" title. Khan fought a mandatory in his first defence.
The double standards of some on this board are incredible.
