Martin Rogan's WBU heavyweight title clash against Panama's Lewis Andreas Pineda scheduled for the Odyssey Arena in Belfast on the 27th of October is off. The British Boxing Board of Control is understood to have refused to sanction the bout amid doubts over the ownership of the WBU belt. Separate organizations in the US and Germany are both claiming jurisdiction over the lightly-regarded belt.

that would be good for sure. i don't know what rogan is doing.he now has backed out of a fight with pulev, turned down a fight with fury & just had his fight with pineda cancelled.thats 3 aging veterans the BBofC has denied sanctioning.pineda, danny williams & botha but they still will sanction matt skelton...

Odd, that. I'm not au fait with this supposed dispute at the sanctioning body itself (because face it, who the **** would get to hear about that even if by some chance they actually wanted to know), but I'm interested about what the BBBoC says regarding their reasons, because they were happy enough for Hatton, Choi etc. hold WBU titles not long ago.
