Mayweather will be dumping his trinket soon

Welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather: “The WBC fully supports the potential super fight between it’s champion Floyd Mayweather and WBO champion Manny Pacquiao,” stated Sulaiman. At this time Selcuk Aydin is the WBC Silver champion and long time mandatory challenger. There is a proposed elimination series with Devon Alexander facing Marcos Maidana at welterweight. That winner is looking to face Aydin, but Aydin’s co-promoters Ahmet Oner and Don King want no part of any further delays in fighting for the WBC belt. “We have stepped aside three times,” snapped Oner. “We support Mayweather-Pacquiao, the whole world wants to see it. But if it doesn’t happen, or even after it happens, we want the winner. We’ve been #1 for two years! I need to go back to tell my fighter something concrete!” snapped Oner, the microphone crashing to the floor. Don King also chimed in supporting Aydin, while Golden Boy’s Eric Gomez was in support of the aforementioned Alexander-Maidana-Aydin scenario, in an effort to get Aydin seen by American eyes. In the end, the board voted to have Aydin receive the next shot at the WBC belt by September, the mandatory deadline. A special amendment allowing each fighter’s promoters to agree to another scenario would be allowed.

I'm laughing at the thought of Mayweather-Aydin

this guy can fight & carries power.not saying he could beat fmj,but if it becomes a"must"fight for fmj,agree grant can't see fmj taking it.not enough reward.the trinket,in reality,adds zero to fmj's pay,his zero & name are worth more.it's not a ppv fight now,so i can't see it happening.

They used to be called championship belts. Now they are correctly called "trinkets."

lmao frank,spot on.maybe if we change the colloquial from trinket to bling more holders miiiiiiiiiiiight choose to defend them
