    Just ignore the WBO from now on

    Its always been the most worthless belt, and its getting worse, amazingly. this is the belt that Calzaghe was able to sit on for years without having a worthwhile mandatory...most of his meaningful title defences were his choice, notthe WBO's. and Zslt Erdie has been fighting nobodies for about 5 years now, he has 11 defences of his title and I doubt 1 of them has even been top ten ranked.

    and now theyre probebly going to make the Barrera-Khan fight a title fight, despite the fact that Barrera has 0 credible wins at 135 and Khan got knocked out by a mid level fighter in the first round not too long ago. what a joke.

    The WBO has no historical significance, has the worst mandatories, makes the worst decisions, and overall has the worst champions. its a worthless belt, and I dont consider it a legitimate title belt anymore.
    so just ignore it from now on.

        WBO is no worse than any of the others, it has legit champs and crappy ones.

        WBA have Valuev and GARAY
        WBC have Berto and Fragomenni

        Half the IBF belts are vacant and in many cases they don't have a No1 or 2 contender for their belts.

        I woulfd get rid of more than one set of belts, two is more than enough. WBA/WBC. and make the intercontinental titles worth something.

                  If you want to open up a critique list for all the abc organisations, then it'll soon end up very difficult to tell them apart, I'm afraid.

                  What mandatories should the WBO have installed on Calzaghe btw? You realise they don't consider eachothers rankings too much, so it's like seperate leagues almost. The problems are rife thoughout all the sport and it's many organisations and belts.

                  The least corrupt is the IBO, and that's ****.
