Let's remember how Lomachenko got that belt. Loma was supposed to fight Haney because Haney was the mandatory & interim champ. Loma didn't want that fight & requested to be franchise champion. Haney was elevated (we are not sure if he asked, petitioned by himself or others).Now the WBC said that the belt is not transferable yet Teo got that belt when he beat Loma, which doesn't make sense.

You now have a situation where there's a dispute because the WBC world champion is obligated to face mandatories while the guy who beat the guy, who beat the guy does not. Hence a disputed champion. The man who wins a possible fight between Haney & Kambosos will be undisputed.

Honestly this confusion is down to the WBC. They said that the franchise belt isn't transferred from one fighter to another yet let Lopez walk around with it. Now Kambosos is parring it.

Sad. I agree with Punch though. Haney should just drop that worthless belt.

Sulaiman always trying to seem more important than he really is. Atp nobody gives a fukk what he says about this, the point is there’s dispute about it between the fans, he’s not to decide it. Loma ducked that fight by applying for “franchise”. And if Sulaiman wants to be slick about Haney’s belt more than a year after they gave it to him Haney should sue their pants off of them for fraudulency and charging him feed for a title that isn’t even real.

For real.

This shyt is disgusting. Makes you disappointed in the sport of it when they say this shyt.

They have made it as hard as possible for Haney to get his fair shot in this division.
