Thought Stevenson was already mandatory for Herring's belt...why it this a final elimination? I'm assuming Herring will vacate before fight date and this will be for the vacant title..

I assume there's a number of dates he needs to fill. Same reason Ruiz/Arreola is a PPV.

dasmarinas has a good chance against inuoe.

Seems very likely that Stevenson-Nakathila will end up being for the vacant WBO title or a WBO interim depending on what Herring does
