    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.
    I don’t see how that’s fair.

    If you’re the mandatory why would you have to fight someone else again to get the shot at the champion? He’s already mandatory.

      Its for the interim belt. Thats a level up from mando. If Rolly gets stripped he'll become the real title holder. And it being Rolly that means this fight very likely is for the real belt just a matter of when Rolly fooks up & gets stripped.

        Oh ok I thought it was 6 months but I figured it was close to ending by this point.

          Chances are Romero ducks the winner anyway, which would mean the winner of this gets elevated to full titlist.

            Article after article and not a peep on what Romero's injury is. What, he stubbed his toe really bad? One can only speculate. Since his mouth is his biggest weapon, there must be an injury there that connects to his brain somehow. If he dresses like a certain senator, he must've had a stroke.

              As soon as Romero fights just about any live body , his glorious title reign will be ended. It's only fair that it be Barroso, who was so blatantly robbed in their " fight".

                Is the WBA going to follow through on this or will the Gilbertito turn the cheek, bend over and let FMJ fcuk him in order to let Rolly/cRyan happen in March?

                  Barroso did his part. Will the WBA do theirs is the BIG question?!?!?!?
