no just make it a elimanater bout im tired of people trying to get an interim belt so they can call them selfs champion without beating a real proven champion -
Its yorgey's promoter wanting this not Angulo. Angulo just wants to fight, he knows he has to work hard to get back on the top. Angulo going to beat Yorgeys ass anyways. I don't want to sound too confident but I feel Angulo knows whats at stake if he loses to Yorgey... His career...Comment

So they want to have 2 interim titleholder in the same division?
The fighters should be ashamed they're even asking for some **** like that on their behalf.
Hopefully, the WBO has a minimal ounce of pride (or whatever the adjective may be) in their title and don't sanction this.Comment

3 belts per weight class + 17 divisions + 4 organizations = 204 available belts.Comment

Yorgeys promoter is a joke.Comment

This kind of **** also has a way of backfiring, same way Arum convinced one of the 4 organizations to sanction Antillon-Acosta so that way Antillon could be a called a champion and be billed as such, Acosta had other plans and no one really cared for him to be a champ.Comment

Angulo is off a rebound win over journeyman Rosado and Yorgey is off a win over prospect Hearns......and now they fight each other for maybe a vacant interim title that will just be created out of thin air?
