    The WBO also has a self-serving interest in this position – to continue existing as one of four major separate ratings organizations empowered to award belts and charge sanctioning fees.
    The ratings structure is not perfect, the sanctioning bodies are not perfect, but if we act with transparency and honesty, we shouldn’t have a problem.
    Key passages above and translate to: "Don't threaten our power. We recognise we've not acted perfectly for the past 30 years but trust us to be better in future."

        They should pass an Act that consolidates all the sanctioning bodies into just one. How about that?

          They're still a corrupt and malign gang of grifters.
          Come on, BoxingScene, you know better than to write a puff-piece like this.
