Their bout may be buried on the non-televised undercard of this weekend's PBC on Fox telecast, but the stakes have significantly raised for bantamweights Ricardo Espinoza and John Riel Casimero.

Zolani Tete is fighting on April 27th. So why the **** would you need to make an interim title?? It seems like sanctioning bodies are getting more shameless every year.

And there it is. Finally, the WBO has joined its contemporaries in producing meaningless, ridiculous titles.

Abandon all hope of returning to at least each body presenting one title per weight class. That I could have lived with.

Eventually, titles will become almost meaningless, devoid of value with only big name fighters lending their prestige and brand power to whatever title they hold.

War Casimero ...

I got Casimero KO Espinoza. If this is on the untelevised fight, they are missing something.
