this is the only bad thing about the WBO, because there's a name fighter, they will always try a way to make it a title fight.

Since when were title fights ten rounds?

Just as-well I've stopped regarding these ridiculous pieces of leather as anything worthwhile.

This is Great News! Barrera's going to be the first Mexican to be a 4 division world champion.

I dunno why MAB don't just let it go. I don't see him beatin any of the LW elite at this point.

I dont believe this story for a second. First of all, Nolasco has been inactive over a year, which means he cant be put in the rankings. Also, if an interim title was ordered, Barerra would have to face the top available contender of the top 15 ranked guys in the WBO.

I just cant see any scenario where this could actually happen. Sounds like just another bunk story from another "un-named source" in Mexico......
