This is just letting the clowns run the operations of the circus. Hell, we have a couple States who have to actually 'borrow' commissions right now. The absolute first thing they need to do is encourage and abide by a unified champion and not roadblock it with obscure manufactured mandatories simply to collect sanctioning fees.
Salient points my friend. And if by chance they do sort something out, the youngin WBO will become a paper weight.
