there are other champions that need to be stripped before jermell. he's taking a bigger fight & a bigger challenge than timmy presents. if they can make exceptions for unifications over mandatories, then a shot at an undisputed championship should be given the same grace. i'd understand if jermell was saying he isn't returning to fifty four but all i've heard from him is he wants to keep his belt. i'd prefer timmy get a shot at jermell for the undisputed championship & jermell will still be the lineal champion if he does go back to that weight anyway
