Weird WBC unification rule with WBO

[eazy_mas]

Off of the top of my head, the following were unification bouts involving the WBC and WBO:

Diego Corrales - Jose Luis Castillo I (Lightweight - 2005)
*2005 Fight of the Year, and considered by many to be among the greatest fights in boxing history*
Bernard Hopkins - Oscar de la Hoya (Middleweight- 2004)
*1st bout in boxing history where WBC/WBA/IBF/WBO titles were all on the line at the same time. Drew 1 million PPV buys*
Erik Morales - Marco Antonio Barrera I (Super Bantamweight - 2000)
*2000 Fight of the Year*
Naseem Hamed - Cesar Soto (Featherweight - either 1999 or 2000)
Ricardo Lopez-Nene Sanchez (Strawweight - 1997)
*1st ever unification bout in strawweight history*
Chris Eubank - Nigel Benn II (Super Middleweight - 1993)
Sugar Ray Leonard -Thomas Hearns II (Super Middleweight - 1989)
*1st ever unification bout in super middleweight history*
and now Calzaghe-Kessler.

Not a ton over the past 20 years, but certainly more than the 1 bout Wikipedia referenced, not to mention the significance some of them carry

damn that wikipedia!!!

that is a big calim so next time i going to looks at an article source for further referance in managment stuff in boxing
