Comments Thread For: WBA Grants Romero Injury Exemption, Must Defend By March 2024; Davies-Barroso Ordered

What's the injury?

Doctor confirmed he got no heart.

romero has a completely manufactured career. i dont know who he is connected with but they want him to succeed for some reason even though hes terrible. he should have 3 losses now and has never beaten anyone good. champ and star lol

I thought Ohara was already the mandatory?

Rollies won’t be prepared to fight by the March date.. why Oscar is eager to make the Davies-Barrosso fight, whoever wins will be crowned the titlist.

Honestly getting stripped is probably preferable for him to getting beat by the first guy he fights & idk that there are many guys Rolly beats that are on his belts radar right now.

I agree with the fact that Romero wouldn't beat many of the top rated fighters in the 140 pound division.
In which he finds himself truly fortunately lucky enough to be holding a piece of the championship.
Simply because the ruling organizations in boxing, make some of the most corrupt decision's imaginable.
I would rather see him lose the championship belt in the ring, than have him stripped of a belt that he shouldn't even be holding.

He was, but Romero has received an injury exemption so now Davies is fighting Barroso for the interim strap. Romero must face the winner by March or he will be stripped and the interim champion will be promoted. In a way it's justice for Barroso for that travesty he suffered in the first Romero fight.

This was already slated once but got cancelled right? Barrosso stoppage was sweet odds. Be sure to keep an eye on those again.

What ever happened to Puello? Seems like he just vanished in thin air!

Oh sure. I was just saying FOR HIM getting stripped might be the move. Not for us or for boxing.

He can spin the story into he never lost his belt in the ring & blah blah blah & probably find another big fight being a ex title holder, who didn't lose his belt in the ring, who fought Tank on PPV.

that WBA title isn't leaving pbc unless Romero's given a mega fight against Ryan Garcia. Hell, they might even let tank get a crack at it after he inherits a vacant 135 belt
