Pakistan boxer Muhammad Waseem has alleged that he was deprived of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fight for the World Boxing Council (WBC) flyweight title due to non-availability of sponsors.
Waseem broke the news himself in a video, saying, "I had a WBC flyweight world title shot, but that opportunity is lost now as I could not arrange the fee needed.
He added, "I have also been stripped of my WBC silver flyweight title and demoted in the rankings. I was the number one contender but I am now fourth on the list.'
