      Yes!!!

      This is good news and BIG for boxing. Hopefully they adopt rules to promote more competition. I think after the Pac/Floyd fiasco they are going to move to tougher testing. Lets hope they all get on the same page so the sweet science can stay strong in 2010.

          I've never really thought of the WBO as a Recognizable belt until the past couple years because the SuperStars made it Big. But the IBF, WBC, WBA should just make one DAMN belt. Would be great jjust to have ONE champion again. but probably wont happen again.
