Comments Thread For: Alexander Bes***** vs. Yordenis Ugas Ordered By WBA

So much for the WBA trying to eliminate belts....

[Ca$ual Fan]

The WBA have always done this BS

look at when Super WBA champ GGG "unified" with Regular WBA champ Danny Jacobs in 2017.

The WBA just created another title

Pac & Thurman "unified" WBA belts, here's the WBA again creating another title

**I thought they made a statement a couple years back claiming they'd cut back on title belts in their own organization

fake news

I was hoping they would only make a new 'regular' champion when the current WBA holder attempts to unify, wins and owns another belt - well no need to be a unified champ to become 'super' Actually, making 'super' and 'regular' is already bad enough now they just move another step further with their corruption.

It's a good news

It will be a good fight

So the WBA claimed it would only have 1 belt holder, what, 2 years now? Manny and Thurman just unified the Super and Regular titles.. then outta nowhere these 2 fight for the same regular title a year later?

It's like the WBA Super Champion is the Champion, the Regular Champion is #1 Contender and the #1 Contender has a shot at the Regular or Interim Title..

Dont ask me how the Interim Title works.

This should go on the ESPN/FOX Wilder/Fury 2 undercard. I hope Arum makes a play for Crawford/Porter for that card too if Bud doesn't take too much punishment in his next fight.

Agree 100%! I wouldn't mind Gary Russell Jr. vs. Shakur Stevenson either!

Gamboa was at one point holding 2 belts with WBA 'regular' being one of them. Inoue also held both the WBA 'regular' and IBF before winning the 'super' against Donaire in the WBSS finals.

Not trying to defend WBA's corrupt system, just saying those things happened before

You can unify a regular if a super title doesn’t exist in the division.

Great shout with that one. If they stack this card am sure they could do 1.5m PPV.

They probably won't! I'm sure Warren will want to put someone we don't want to see in there with someone irrelevant! Still hopeful for at least Bes***** vs. Ugas!

Maybe as per WBA rules. But those examples I mentioned, there was an existing ‘super’ champion.

Chris John was a ‘super’ champ that time when Gamboa was IBF and WBA ‘regular’. The weird thing is, the super champ wasn’t the unified champ but rather the regular was
