      Yup. Kinda. I put a link above. Apparently some of the other fringe nations that don't fall under other regional groupings (like Hungary for instance, though why they ain't in with Europe is anyone's guess) have, bizarrely, been put under the jurisdiction of the Trans - Oceanic, but raised complaints about the name, since - well - they ain't anywhere near an Ocean.

      The solution was the kind of stroke of genius you only get when you put together a committee and tell 'em to solve a problem...

      But when Leigh discussed the proposed jurisdiction of the Trans-Oceanic, which would be an organization that would sanction fights in Australia, New Zealand, Asia, and Eastern Europe, Kovacs voiced his concerns.

      (fight news)

      “We (Hungary) have no part of (the) Ocean,” Kovacs said. “Romania has no part of Ocean. Bulgaria has no part of Ocean.”
      Day two of the 31st annual WBO Convention kicked off Wednesday Morning (October 31) and after a morning of furious negotiations between WBO Vice President of Europe Istvan “Koko” Kovacs and Australian member Danny Leigh, the WBO Trans-Oceanic was renamed and approved after a unanimous vote. Leigh, Kovacs, and WBO Vice President of Asia-Pacific Leon Panoncello originally reached a compromise name of WBO Global Nations, a suggestion that was met with little enthusiasm from WBO President Francisco “Paco” Valcarcel.

      “I’ve got my concerns,” Valcarcel said after hearing the new name, “You don’t think we could create a problem with that organization…with that name?”
      Valcarcel proposed simply striking the last half of the proposed name, going instead with WBO Global. Although some members expressed concern about WBO Global creating some confusion between global and world titles, the overall reception to the new name was positive and the board unanimously voted to approve WBO Global as the newest regional belt.

        WBA recently created the WBA gold championship, but refuses to explain what it is.

            Don't think the WBA is happy with me trying to draw attention to the creation of the WBA gold championship.

              Casuals can easily be fooled

              Rocky fielding vs canelo is for a "world title"

              More fighters can call themselves "world champion"

              No clarity at all

              No scrutiny except for a handful of hardcore fans like us on forums and social media
