GBP Wants Teixeira vs Crawford Next for WBO Title

[KTFOKING]

damn, i wanted brian to fight teixeira for that belt

It might still happen. This isn't a done deal yet or anything.

Wouldn't mind that at all

Why not? A chance to become a four-division champion. That probably would have been one of the in-house options if Adames had won.

They might as well do the fight while they still can. PBC has the WBO mandatory now and I don't think Teixeira would beat Castano. So PBC could pull off a full monopoly at 154. PBC also has the WBO mandatory at welterweight now. So if Crawford moves up, PBC has the full monopoly at welterweight.

This is what i was thinking as well. What are the WBO's policies on this if bud moves up, wins, but decides to move back down? Do they automatically strip fighters for moving up even if it's for their organizations title?

they would give him a short amount of time to pick which belt to keep. which is great for PBC still because whichever one he ditches, PBC gets the full monopoly in that division.

You can’t have simultaneous WBO standings.
