Comments Thread For: Mayweather Explains The Situation With The WBO Title

[Willie_pep1]

The WBO have lost all credibility. Snake move they tryin to pull on floyd

[robbyheartbaby]

Hahahaha the WBO have been in Arum's back pocket for years, they are corrupt yes but so is every other sanctioning body!

[Pigeons]

Why aren't "hardcore boxing fans" outraged about this?

Mayweather unified the titles in the ring against the #2 P4P fighter in the world. Immediately after the fight one of the organizations strips him of the belt and sanctions Tim Bradley (winless in his last 2 fights) vs. Jessie Vargas (junior welterweight) for the belt.

This is outrageous.

Apparently, you can voice complaints on the WBO's website. Just click contact

[PETUFF]

Wbo the best they don't give you anything! you have to earn it!

[bojangles1987]

Why does he care if he's going to turn around and drop it?

Why does he care if he's going to turn around and drop it?

Because he earned it.

They should at least give him what he has earned, even if its just a formality.

TO ADD TO YOUR POINT...vargas has never even held the real wbo belt at 140...wbo and arum just made up the bed they got it on in a n hour ago..they plan to rendezvous later tonight tho

Silly on his part not to pay the sanctioning fee.

If this is true then there is no point for Floyd to complain about it.

Why complain when you would have to pay the WBO to keep the belt anyway? Just say "screw them" and leave that title vacant.

[SlySlickSmooth]

I thought Floyd didn't pay sanctioning fees.
