Shane Mosley stripped of his trinket

The WBA has stripped Shane Mosley of the their welterweight title. Mosley was recognized as the WBA's "super" welterweight champion. Vyacheslav Senchenko (30-0, 20KOs) of Ukraine was the WBA's "regular" champion at the weight and will now be recognized as the full title-holder at 147-pounds. Senchenko defends his title against Charlie Jose Navarro on August 30 in Ukraine.

The WBA stripped Mosley because they never agreed on the terms for his May 1 bout with Floyd Mayweather Jr., who refused to pay the sanctioning fees to fight for Mosley's WBA title. Mosley went forward without reaching a deal with the WBA and was dominated in a twelve round decision loss. The WBA sent Mosley a letter wishing him luck in the future and they hope he can fight for one of their titles down the line.

I'm sure Shane is crushed.

now that he isnt champ, he is nothing since trinkets mean so much.

it was common knowledge that since santion fees were not paid if shane won he would keep there title if he lost the title is vacant...lol shane was there super champ and the other guy there regular champ..how wonderfull that a commision now has 2 or 3 champs in the same division....so now this guy becomes there super champ lol and there regular champ or do they annoint a new regular champ.....of course the general public now needs 5 philadelphia lawyers to explain it to them..want new young fans of the future to enjoy boxing..get ride of these bums.

hahahah Good for FLoyd saying fuck your sanctioning fees

Hey Dmar remember after BHOP won the tourney they concocted this super tourney bullshit and had William Joppy facing Howard Eastman in no time for a "regular title"

what a joke the WBC is

bird the wbc is by far the worst..the rest are pathetic also..theres no interest by any to keep a real unified title.none..if a title is unified it will be for 2 to 6 months .4 commisions and a few minor ones are involved..all have rankings that dont resemble each other and all have differnt number 1 contenders.imaggine a champ trying to have to fight 5 or 6 different mandatories a year in the commisions time frame...thats why a title wont be unified for long..
the worst thing i ever saw was the wbc sets upo a fight with there real champRC and ther inter champ in valuez to have 1 champ in there joke title..RC a few weeks before the fight cannot fight in the location chozen cause of tainted blood ..so instead of seeking a new location they cancel the fight and annoint valuez as there champ..wlad challenges both and in a short time RC accepts and fights him..vlad destroys there real ex champ who never lost his title in the ring..after the fight wbc has there new rankings.RC who was destroyed by wlad is there number 1 and wheres wlad in there top ten..nooowhere. this is why i keep stressing get ride of these bums.there hurting boxing.

I dont even TRY to keep up with the titles at all anymore. I dont know who holds what belt, but I CAN tell you who, if anyone, is THE MAN in any division. I tell my casual boxing fans that they should not care who is he belt holder, only who is the best and fighting the best.

Such a shame he'll have to start over at the bottom. LOL
