Taylor vacates WBC world title

Josh Taylor has vacated the WBC super-lightweight championship. The WBC has received a letter from Taylor's attorney in which he confirms his decision to relinquish the belt.

Jose Zepeda and Jose Ramirez have been ordered to fight for the vacant title. Scotland's Taylor had become the undisputed champion at 140lbs when he beat Ramirez in Las Vegas to win all four of the major super-lightweight titles.

Earlier this year he defended his belts with a controversial points win over Jack Catterall. The subsequent outcry put a rematch between Taylor and Catterall in high demand and the Scotsman has already vacated one of his belts, the WBA title, after failing to agree to fight their mandatory challenger Alberto Puello.
