WBO makes Timothy Bradley WBO super champion

[Hougigo]

World Kid Ali should sue these fools and bin the belt after he's done with Vargas.

At this point, he'll never get it. pac says it's his last fight, but guarantee if he wins, WBO will hold out on the off chance he might come back

Super Champion is probably the most ******ed term in boxing, how can you explain that term to anyone that is not into the sport.

Impossible to do with a straight face.

You just can't...

They said that that wouldn't mean there'd be an extra belt, but anything is in the air at this point. They're trying to make sure they get a hand in Pac/Bradley 3 even though they lined Ali up last year

I guess I should have read the full twit. If that's the case I'll have to lean towards you suggestion which is the WBO trying to screw Ali out of his title shot. Not fair at all to Ali who could really use the exposure the title would bring him.

“I find it odd that my friends at the summit did not discuss the elimination of aluminum, copper, silver, interim, recess & emeritus titles,” Valcarcel tweeted that month, a clear jab at the WBC and its Silver Championship.

Fight news: This is another good segue into my next question. You mentioned “the others” here, which we can assume is in reference to the other sanctioning organizations. To many boxing insiders, it appears that in the last year something of a rivalry emerged between the WBO and the other sanctioning organizations. The WBO was notably absent from a recent boxing summit hosted in Cancun back in June, in which the Presidents of the WBA, WBC, and IBF met to discuss some changes and uniformed policies regarding the sport. You raised some eyebrows afterwards when you criticized the proliferation of belts in the other organizations. Just last week on Facebook you took a jab at the WBA, criticizing the fact that they have 38 champions in 17 weight classes. Would you care to comment on this growing war of words between the WBO and the other sanctioning organizations?

Francisco “Paco” Valcarcel: We are against interim championships. We are against three champions in one division. We are against having super champions and regular champions. Now we do have a few “super champions” but this is to (allow them to) work with TV. Klitschko is a super champion. That is the way he can fight with the right opponent that people will enjoy. We also have Manny Pacquiao. All the fans know Manny all over the world. This (super championship) only gives them more time to work with their mandatory. They fight the right guy and the right guy for TV, and the guy people want to see on TV. For that point of view with have the super champion, but we don’t have another champion and a super champion! We are also against copper, aluminum, silver championships and all those types of belts. Now we have international champions since sometimes you have a good fighter from one continent, so this is an intercontinental type of belt.

But the reason we didn’t show in Mexico is that it was inconsequential. You go, the media is there, but then nothing happens. Because you still have three champions and a bunch of aluminum and copper champions. Regardless of my relationship, we are talking about different concepts. We are against that concept and they promote the concept of three champions in one division and the proliferation of titles in the sport.

The WBA and WBO need to get nuked off the map. Boxing would be so much better off.
