Again, this is my beef with the WBA! Castano has been the "Regular" champion @ 154 since November 2016!
WBA to order Erislandy Lara vs. Brian Castano
October 29, 2017:
"The WBA’s stated desire to reduce the number of belts in play has been...inconsistently enforced, to put it kindly. They’re still making an effort, though, and ESPN reports that the sanctioning body will order “Super” super welterweight champ Erislandy Lara to face “regular” champ Brian Castano."
What ever happened to that fight? Lara should've never been allowed to fight Yuri Foreman and Terrell Gausha! Now Hurd beat Lara in a unification, and instead of ordering Lara to face Castano, the order a rematch of Hurd vs. Lara! Nobody is going to fight an unknown (and dangerous) Argentinian if the WBA doesn't force the issue! Would Sadam Ali wouldn't be facing Munguia if Smith was healthy?
