The WBA felt that Margarito met those conditions to merit the Super Champion status."

I have been so sick of these super, regular, interim champions for a while now..this just adds to the bad feelings

This way the WBA can make two champions and collect two sanctioning fees.

I really hated that 'super' champion business but what can we do? That's boxing today.
