WBO... world title?

[THE REAL NINJA]

i think the WBO should be respected more then it has been in the past ... atleast from what i've seen most of the deserving fighters get a shot some time or another unlike the other federations that are more about politics and money ***of course I could be completely wrong about that.... have to ask an inside source ***

Well if you had any doubts about the title (Herbie Hide springs to mind) forget it. Calzaghe should have erased any doubts about the WBO.

Herbie Hide was a talented boxer man.

WBO holder of the welter wieght Margrito is a very strong guy. As well as Deigo Corrales and others

So I think if I say no I disrepect the holders of the belts who work hard for it.

Good point.

Well it is a major belt and major sanctioning body along with WBC,IBF and WBA but I think the whole system is in shambles and corrupt.I tend to agree with The Ring belt holders more so than any of these but they are not perfect either.

In this day an age folks it is as simple as this...

THE BELT DOES NOT LEGITIMIZE THE MOTHER****ING FIGHTER...QUITE THE OPPOSITE...THE MOTHER****ING FIGHTER LEGITIMIZES THE BELT.

EXAMPLE: If 4 different fighters at Junior Welterweight had the IBF, WBC, WBA and WBO....and then there was Ricky Hatton who held the NABF...in this situation the NABF would be the most credible belt.

The fighter makes the belt not the other way around...cmon guys in these trying times of ****head alphabet belts...dont loose your focus, ****!

What makes me sick is the fact that it's only because they're American fighters, if it was british/euro fighters you wouldn't be saying that.

Thank you Raesaad!

****, Turkey what Im saying is Ricky could have a card board belt made in your garage and currently if that was the only body that recognized him as the junior welterwegith champ then that would be the only belt at the time that was worth a ****.

Dont be so sensitive...not all yanks are out to discredit your guys...settle down son.

Turkey I dont have all the time in the world to spell **** out for you all the time...you are gonna have to start picking some of this stuff up otherwise Im gonna have to let you go...you got that boy?

I'm not talking about you personally scap, but theres many many bigoted guys out there, who are either blinded by their own fighters or just plain haters.
