After beating Manny Pacquiao for the WBO Welterweight Championship, Floyd Mayweather was ordered to vacate his two other Junior Middleweight Championships and pay a $200,000 Sanctioning Fee as a part of the WBO rules which doesn't allow for fighters to hold belts in different weight classes.

Mayweather was stripped of the belt by the WBO who issued this statement:

“The WBO world championship committee is allowed no other alternative but to cease to recognize Mr. Floyd Mayweather Jr. as the WBO welterweight champion of the world and vacate his title for failing to comply with our WBO regulations of world championship contests.”

It's not exactly great but he did walk away with $220 million for fighting "The Pacman", so who really cares, right?
