The Boxing Report

The WBC have just sent us this:
The WBC has designated WBC lightweight champion, Mikey Garcia as Emeritus Champion.
This designation is an honor that has been granted to a few exceptional elite champions, which allows them to resolve specific situations, which prevent them to actively defend their WBC world championship.
... Mikey Garcia is a multiple division world champion and is a role model who represents the boxing inside and outside the ring. Mikey has been competing in 3 different categories and the WBC has decided to grant him the Emeritus designation, which will allow him to return to the lightweight division if his future decision is to compete in this weight category.
The WBC is very proud of Mikey Garcia and his valiant efforts to prove his greatness inside the ring at all times.
The WBC Board of Governors will review the lightweight division to order a fight for the WBC lightweight world championship involving mandatory challenger Luke Campbell in the coming days.

Patrick’s response to this news:
Jarrell ‘Big drug cheat’ Miller 🍔 will NOT receive a ban for his several drug test failures because his New York license has expired.
Miller could however pick up a license elsewhere 😳.

Do you want the good news first or the bad news first?
The bad news: Maidana was making a return and had made the effort to return...however, he’s decided boxing isn’t for him anymore and he’s not coming back.
The good news: There will be more pictures like this.
... Every cloud eh’.
