    Golota-Brewster: no respect to the WBO

    HBO premiered their commerical for Golota-Brewster, and by mentioning the title challenger 1st, HBO has once again chosen to take a dump on the alphabet belts with their marquee fight titles by announcing the so-called "champion" 2nd....is this marketing, racism, disrespect to the fringe WBO belt, or other circumstances for the switch-a-roo?

    Other recent examples of this type of disrespect were DeLaHoya-Castillejo, Trinidad-Reid, Trinidad-Joppy, for the record

        ....Yeah it's do or die for Golota and I think he is gonna knock Brewster out. He realizes that he can no longer leave a decision in the hands of the judges.

          IF Golota beats Brewster and gets the WBO belt, I think he would have to vacate the WBO to fight Toney, because I think you cant hold the WBO and WBA at the same time, and I dont think Golota will vacate the WBO. Not when he can sell out the United Center in Chicago just fighting the mandatories if he wants and get HBO coverage.

              Golota's a bigger name, so HBO says it first. Boxing fans don't need a reminder that this fight is happening; the average HBO viewer probably does...

                I don't think Toney has any interest in fighting for the WBO. He wants the IBF and WBC instead.
