Exactly what should happen, WBC would look ridiculous if they did anything different,

Canelo would still technically be lineal champ at 160 even if stripped..?

WTF has that got to do with anything? Who gives a shite? In an age where there are so many belts, lineal title is meaningless. Did anyone really think Cotto was the best MW in the world?

Nobody would seriously consider that lineage.

Are memories that short? What did they do to Maravilla? Don't believe this shit until it happens. WeBeCrooked. That organization can make Satan weep. But its a nice start. Canelito should no doubt step up and take his beating.

Yep if Canelo was stripped for flat out refusing to fight his #1 contender then he's given up his title without a fight. Which is even worse than losing it.

He and HBO will spin it. He will kill himself to get down to 154 for his next fight. Then he will fight for a 154 trinket. Anything to look like he is not ducking. Same thing the Puerto Rican Cotto did. Not many accused Cotto of ducking GGG. He just got out of it for as long as he could. Same with Canelo.

By the way - i know the abc belts are garbage - but since when could champions of other belts become mandatories?

If the sanctioning body decides it wants to unify the titles.

Golovkin won the interim WBC belt by beating Rubio and thus became WBC mandatory.

Chavez Jr moves to the third position on GGG list:

"Ey GGG You are great as a person and fighter. do not wait for coward..amigo... September #MexicanStyle #mexicanday

And then Chavez told his followers - "If I don't make 168 [for the fight with Golovkin] I will give him my pay [for the fight]."

Another quote from Sulaiman:

"Oscar can say whatever he wants....it's his right to do so, but we are also within our rights to take the title away from his boxer if he does not meet [his obligation]," said Sulaiman.
