      Alex signed on to a fight that would give him a shot, it's not his fault any of this played out. I bet he would rather have lost fighting his heart out then being hand it like this. However he is now a Champion, Well done Alex. Just show 'em next time!

        I don't know if you can blame Arthur personally, but his handler's you probably can. I mean the fight got rescheduled and now it's off. They might have known Arthur was in over his head, so they found some excuses to back out. Well I hope Guzman can get some fightst at 135.

          Paper champ.

          Warren did everything possible to make this fight not happen. Remember, the visa problems delayed Guzman's arrival by one single day, still would have arrived in Scotland 10+ days prior to the fight, there was no reason for the delay. Then, they basically stalled and said they couldn't find a new date/venue, which is pure bull****.

          I don't blame Arthur, it's Warren, but I surely wouldn't be proud of that belt. It's an embarrassment. Everyone and their mama knows Guzman would have ****ed him up, most likely by KO. Even Arthur fans admitted this.

          Hopefully things go better for Guzman at 135. He deserve a big named fight.

            So Guzman ducked Arthur to go chasing the Lightweights.

            Arthur fully deserves the title, because then his mandatory JMM will school him into reality.

            This is a joke, but some good may come out of it with a possible Brit showdown with Kevin Mitchell.

              Its kinda messed up how he says he fwlt he was the champion when he beat koba, this guys thinks he's the champ without beating the REAL champ, his camp knew it was a serious risk so they did what promotors do, protect his fighter so he can keep making money.Guzmon said forget arthur im gonna clean out a whole different weight division(135) since no one in this division(130) wants to fight me.

                  WBO = Warren's Boxing Organization

                  Warren didn't want Arthur in with Guzman..

                      Guzman would have wiped the floor with Arthur, no doubt.

                      I seriously hope he gets the opportunities he deserves at LW, he's getting older and it sucks because he's like 31 or 32 and he needs to get the recognition he deserves before he becomes too old.

                      He could get a crack at Campbell, Diaz, Marquez, Casa, Katsidis or hopefuylly Pac-Man.

                      OH ****, could his move o 135 finally bring about the Guzman-Katsidis fight that we lost not long ago due to Guzman's injury?
