    Another WBO belt falls into the hands of Top Rank

    Jaime Munguia announces that he will be vacating his WBO Super Welterweight belt and move up. Guess who’s the #1 contender for that belt? Top Ranks very own: Carlos Adames.

    You can see why the PBC doesn’t recognize the WBO, they’re in Bob Arum’s pockets.

    Maaaan, thats crazy! Didnt realize Jaime was forced to give up the belt or that TR paid him to move up and drop the belt! TR should be investigated

        No surprise, Mr. Varcarcel is very submissive to Arum this is nothing new

        However, I do like Adames he is a good fighter actually

          Vacant between Adames and Tiexiera. Tiexiera is hit or miss but I don't mind that fight.

              Not sure what your point is. Top Rank pays sanctioning fees for a lot of guys to the WBO. They judge this is a good path to get them ranked and into winnable title fights. The PBC tends to prefer the WBA for their guys. Sometimes there are other reasons like who the best most winnable fight in your division is, or mexicans tend to be well treated by the WBC. Jose Ramirez is an example. Top rank have manuvered to make Pulev mandatory with the IBF. None of this is evidence of anything, except Top Rank being good at moving their fighters.

                Almost as bad as the pbc and all these fake wba titles like tanks, pascals, the one barrhemely and Easter fought for etc. Easy to see the wba is getting bribes by pbc.

                    What's the combined percentage with Frank Warren & Top Rank?
