    And wbo is the top rank title

        I'm handing back my WBA championship belt if it does, I suggest you all do the same.

          Read up about the WBC when they did the same to Roy Jones. He vacated then had a change of heart so after the WBC strip the champion to give belt back to RJJ. The guy who was stripped sued the WBC & won. He was awarded like 32 million & the WBC almost went bankrupt. Can’t recall all the details exactly but it was pretty shady. The WBC executives were long time Don King puppets. Read up about some of the stuff they did for King…

                I know... this is a rare thing in sports. In other sports, if you hate something you just vote with your pocketbook. Do not watch, do not support. Thing is these sanctioning bodies are supported by the fighters themselves. Of COURSE we are going to watch Pacquiao/Spence. These two matching up is a interesting fight and I want to reward THEM for signing it. But that means these worthless belt providers get theirs. It is a crap thing.

                Wish I could reward Pacquiao and Spence without supporting these ABC organizations. Just does not work that way.

                    He was considering fighting a lightweight. That's why he was stripped.

                      That’s what happened the only reason why the WBC is still in business is because the guy was talked out of asking for the money. Trout is trying to do the same to the WBO. I doubt Ugas would do that . They will give him some money and he will probably get Spence next.
