Good News: Martinez WBC Champion Emeritus, will fight Dzinziruk for WBC Diamond belt

Sergio Martinez is Emeritus, Diamond Belt With Dzinziruk - Boxing News

Great news. I'm glad they've cleared up the Middleweight title situation. That was getting confusing.

Hmmm, so by signing to fight different opponents they become a champion? Martinez becomes the WBC champion Emeritus and Zbik becomes the "full" WBC champion? And when they do fight they fight for the made up and still no criteria Diamond Belt? So now 3 titles are on the line? Hmmm, I'm glad they cleared this up because I thought this was only for 1, and still counting, of the 20 WBC world title belts.

Someone simply has to get a hold of this shit by the nuts and squeeze the life out of them. Martinez needs to say balls to the WBC.

[LukeH]

So the WBC strip Martinez of his belt and then give him some bullshit title and make this fight for the 'Diamond belt' so that they can have extra sanctioning fees? Good people

[armin]

Complete joke but they'll keep doing it cause they can get away with it.

[No Contest]

This is so they can have Zbik fight JCC jr for the title. Total bullshit I hate when fighters are just given belts without fighting for them.

I frickin hate the WBC. It just depresses me to hell and bak, this bullshit. Someone has to sort this frickin mess out.
