Does floyd mayweather not have any mandatory challenges he has to make?

Question

He's WBC champ...but surely he cant just call the shots as to who and when he fights???

Answer 1

No he already fought hatton and the de la hoya rematch counts as a title defense...

Enough with him fighting Non welter weights and has beens

When the h**l will the cotto fight happen

Answer 2

According to the WBC rankings, Hatton was a Compulsary Defence.  So his next defence will an optional one.

Right now Andre Berto is the #1 contender, but he is not ready for Floyd.

The rest of the top 5 is pathetic

2. Miguel Rodriguez

3. Luic Collazo (would make a decent defense)

4. Carlos Baldomir

5. Jackson Osei Bonsu

These types of characters would be better served just accepting step aside money and wait for Floyd to vacate the title.

Answer 3

its optional
