PBC recognizes the WBO now. Why is Charlo ducking a WBO unification?

[Eff Pandas]

I bet it has to do with that lawsuit Austin Trout filled against the WBO a few years back. Austin must have won.

I think it's mainly about the WBO being seen as corrupt towards Arum. believe Bob's had 5+ WBO champs at any particular time for the last near decade at least. I think all these groups are corrupt but the WBO seems to have a very special relationship with the WBO.

reminds me of all the wba interim belts and pbc

Idk that they do necessarily. Like I said when Andy won the WBO title it didn't change things & HW is a premier division in boxing. 154 while more competitive than most other divisions these days isn't as notable historically so idk if a title they see as secondary in a less glamour division is gonna shake the PBC's long held stance & I'd bet it don't.

Andy won a bunch of belts not just the WBO.

If Brian Castano wins he will only have the one WBO belt.

Yes so. It's still the WBO belt & BCC isn't seen as the #1 guy or a tip top guy (yet) at 154 like Andy became when he beat AJ.

Maybe they will start showing the WBO situation in their graphics but this TBA fight don't prove they will.

I don't know man. All I've been hearing Charlo say is he is being avoided. He's not even willing to cross the street, yet he's not sending offers to the ones he is calling out. He seem like a very confused individual.

Andy won a bunch of belts so PBC could get away with ignoring the WBO and not losing any luster when talking about him.

If Castano wins his only luster will be that WBO belt. So if they ignore it he's just another guy.

Forget Charlo sending any offer to anyone on the other side of the street.
He can't even hand over one to his fellow PBC-mate Derevyanchenko.
LOL at Charlo sending offers.

Why is he mentioning names then if he doesn't intend to fight them? He doesn't want to cross the street, he turns down offers coming from that side, what exactly does he want other than keep on barking?

He just loves to bark, that's all it is doe.

I mean even if he wins a vacant WBO title he will be just another guy til he beats someone legit in the top 5. Just ask Andrade about how far his bs belt has gotten him & hes not even with PBC.
