"2 division champion" Rolando Romero

famicommander11mo ago

The saga of Rolando Romero: Wins WBA 135 interim strap by robbery over Jackson Marinez Gets knocked out challenging Gervonta Davis for the WBA 135 secondary title Somehow gets a vacant WBA 140 title shot in his next fight, is awarded a bogus stoppage in a fight he is losing against a fossilized Ismael Barroso Loses his WBA 140 title by KO to Isaac Cruz in his first defense Wins comeback fight against Manuel James Moves up to 147, somehow challenges for the WBA secondary world title in his 1st fight against Ryan Garcia (also in his 1st fight at 147) Beats Ryan Garcia, Jaron Ennis moves up to 154 Rolando is now the WBA 147 champion by unanimous email. This man's entire career has been manufactured by the WBA. He is the worst two division world "champion" in recent memory (I don't count Erick Rosa because he only held a secondary belt at strawweight).

As long as the ABC's make a percentage of purses instead of flat rate this stuff will continue Rolly promotes the fights, he talks trash they sell and ABC would rather him have a belt than some random They should get nothing and boxing embrace a better system.

Rolly imo is a bum. That said, you can’t minimize his accomplishments then salute someone else you like for doing the same. He got the same “promoter relates to sanctioning body” gift of a title fight as others have received from their promoter. He gets fights because he sells the fight and usually gets ktfo by the bigger draw. That is how he got the Ryan fight. But we all need to Face facts. Ryan is a bigger bum than Rolly and a PED cheater. We should all have been pulling for Rolly to kick his ass anyway.

I get it man. I really do. But do we blame Rolly for it? He's getting spoils he doesn't deserve but he ain't necessarily the brunt of the blame. He's not the jackass in charge of the rankings. It's actually all kind of hilarious. Sad, but funny. And Zod help me, Rolly himself is winning me over.

He's actually a 3 division champion respect the greatness

He's pretty much a hall of famer lmao

You are correct, it is absurd. The problem is, a lot of the people who recognise this absurdity (including you) harp on about "undisputed" (i.e. paying sanctioning fees to four corrupt sanctioning bodies) as if it's still the sport's highest accolade. "Undisputed" means accepting all the sanctioning body baggage. Choose.
