OK, this is EXACTLY the type of thing I am always talking about!! It's enough to make anyone in boxing (fans, fighters, trainers, anyone) go insane...Celestino JUST lost to Jason Litzau on world wide TV...if he gets mandated as the mandatory challenger then what does that mean for the guy who just defeated him???? Can anyone EXPLAIN this???

Caballero is WBA mandatory
By Gabriel F. Cordero
The WBA Championship Committee has voted to appoint Panamanian Celestino “Pelenchin” Caballero as the mandatory challenger for featherweight champion Yonathan Barros. Barros has 180 days to fight his mandatory, so he could make an optional defense in the meantime.

Weight classes matter, I guess.

iceman why arnt you on friday night fights anymore???? things like this should be said on national tv

I have been told it is because his loss was at 130 but...what about the other guys ranked right behind him...I mean, he lost his previous fight...its confusing...

Yea he did lose at 130 and not 126 so it shouldn't damage his 126 ranking that badly.

Still though he should have to win a fight at 126 just to reestablish himself

i use to enjoy your breakdown of fights and general boxing knowledge..you did a great job

Thanks Larry...I assume I will still be on ESPN-News before and after the big fights...like I say, though, Teddy is good at tackling "issues" on the air...so far my only duty has been to analyze the in ring action...I prefer it that way...
