Floyd Mayweather stripped of WBO belt. by Nobody: 9:16am On Jul 07, 2015 |
Floyd stripped of WBO belt. Floyd Mayweather has been stripped of the WBO welter weight title he won by beating Manny Pacquiao two months ago. Mayweather failed to meet the deadline last Friday for paying the $200 000 sanctioning fee required by the WBO. The American took the belt from Pacquiao in Las Vegas on May 2 in the richest fight in history, earning a reported $220 million. WBO rules require boxers to pay three percent of their purse to fight for a world title up to a maximum of $200 000. http://mobi.supersport.com/boxing/international/news/150707/Mayweather_stripped_of_title_he_won_in_Pacquiao_fight |

Simply put, he prefers to hold on to his 2 (WBA & WBC) titles. If he pays the $200k, he'd still have to drop his 2 previous titles for the WBO . . So as a wise businessman dude had to leave it. Let them give it to Timothy Bradley, it won't change the record and it won't empty his account. Another wise move by the boxerpreneur. . . GreedyGenius! 1 Like |

Why not obey a simple instruction. What is $200,000 compared to $200million. |
