And that's why boxing is in the state it is right now...

I don't understand, what did he do to win it? I thought his next fight wasn't until March.

The WBO told Marquez that he had to fight the winner of Burns vs Katsidis or lose the belt.

Marquez would beat Ricky Burns but the WBO have done the right thing by doing what they did by making Burns the champ as he won vs Katsidis.

The WBO are also very smart as they have made Marquez No1 contender for Pacquaio's Title

Gratz to Burns, On Burns night no less. Hopefully we see Mitchell vs Burns this year.

It really isn't a bad decision by the WBO, he's basically won it against Katsidis and defends against Moses.
