[@SkoolofskillsInc]

Golden Boy is a rag outfit. Stanionis should have NEVER stepped aside for Errol Spence. That was a huge mistake.

[@llaverick7739]

He stepped aside?

[@903thrax9]

He was Errol's mandatory before he fought Ugas, but unifications trump mandatories. After Ugas he was scheduled to fight Spence again but Spence and Crawford entered into negotiations so he stepped aside only to have Crawford pull out and fight David. He should be the mandatory for who ever wins on the 29th in my opinion.

[@SkoolofskillsInc]

@@llaverick7739 Yup...The WBA at first was going to eliminate their "regular" belt(s) and have just one champion belt. So they was doing a mini tournament to eliminate the one belt and the last two would fight for the "real"/major belt. I think PBC pressured the guy into stepping aside. If he didn't step aside he'd be on the shelf for two years. (my guess) Stanionis had already beat Butaev so he was in-line to fight for the real belt. Then he stepped aside to let Errol Spence in.(of course he got paid...they paid him more he ever made to NOT fight. ) ============================ ARTICLE WBA orders 147lbs tournament between Ugas, Stanionis, James and Butaev September 17th 2021. As part of its initiative to deliver one world title holder in every division, the WBA has ordered a mini-welterweight tournament to discover its sole champion. After upsetting eight-division champion Manny Pacquiao in Las Vegas last month, current WBA Super title holder Yordenis Ugas must meet Lithuania’s No.1 contender Eimantas Stanionis with the winner facing either WBA Regular champion Jamal James or Russian contender Radzhab Butaev who clash in the other semi-final.

[@SkoolofskillsInc]

@@903thrax9 That's incorrect. The WBA were doing a mini tourney....to eliminate a belt. PBC/Spence paid off Stanionis to step aside and get his spot in the tourney. That was a mistake imo by Stanionis. (He may have been pressured by PBC) WBA orders welterweight “box-off” featuring Ugas-Stanionis and James-Butaev The embattled organization continues to reduce the number of titles By Jonathon Henschel Sep 16, 2021, 4:05pm EDT The WBA announced on Thursday their plan to reduce the number of redundant titles, this time in the welterweight division. To that end, they have ordered their champion Yordenis Ugas to face Eimantas Stanionis by January 13, 2022, and their secondary belt-holder Jamal James to face mandatory challenger Radzhab Butaev before November 2021. The winners would theoretically meet by March 2022, for the honor of being the WBA’s lone welterweight champion.
