    Comments Thread For: Association of Boxing Commissions Addresses Numerous Concerns With WBA

    A sanctioning body's promise to clean up its titular mess has been met by the call to altogether clean up its act. The World Boxing Association (WBA) has come under fire in recent days, largely in part to the controversial verdict that took place on August 7 with its "interim" welterweight title at stake. Venezuela's Gabriel Maestre (4-0, 3KOs)--a two-time Olympian who has been fast-tracked to title contention escaped with a highly questionable split decision draw over Mykal Fox in the chief support of a Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) on Fox-televised tripleheader from The Armory in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

      To be honest, the WBC, IBF and WBO aren't great either.

                IBF seems the best of the bunch, I thought any horror stories to share ;-)
                The WBC and WBO just seem owned by promoters.

                    I'm okay with just One title each Organization and one intérim title everybody knows Interim isn't the world champion but still a respected title to have . Just hate the regulars/Gold that get made out to be actual titles.
