Comments Thread For: Austin Trout Wins Appeal In Ongoing Lawsuit Versus WBO

[Combat Talk Radio]

How does a sanctioning body remove a fighter from its rankings simply because he is committed to another fight under a different body? Corrupt bastards!

Well, at least now we know why Crawford has no urgency to fight any PBC guys. They (WBO) probably threatened him.

"Defend our title, or lose your legs!"




I'd respect him more if he just came out and said as much.

Now that Haymon doesn’t advice Trout anyMore I guess he’s not getting his %10!

But this is just an appeal. Doesn’t mean Trout is going to win. I hear Joey Hernandez saying “don’t I get a piece too?!”

I hope he wins, the WBO as an organization is the biggest joke in boxing, even more than what the WBC has done lately.

[ShoulderRoll]

I hope Trout's lawyers take the WBO to the cleaners.

By the time it's settled, Trout will be retired.

It doesn't matter because if Austin Trout wins then the WBO goes out of business. They are going to bankrupt

[BOJACK]

sheit i hope he gets all the money he wants, **** yo.

That is a Win for ALL FIGHTERS!

It needs to happen more often from the fighters against these Corrupt, DIRTY, Greedy Belt Organizations. Dillian Whyte really needs to look into his situation with the WBC and if he has a case. I'm not a Whyte fan at all but even I can admit that he has been screwed over by the WBC Repeatedly and they know it which is why they just named him "Interim Champion"? What?

Yeah but good for Trout, I seriously doubt WBO even have $40 Million being that it operates as a "Nonprofit Institute" so yeah he likely won't get $40 Million but I hope his Lawyer can get him as much as they can squeeze out of the WBO

Good for Trout.


I met him in Brooklyn. Nice guy.

[Get em up]

That's a nice retirement payday

[Pigeons]

Hell yeah. Let's get down to three sanctioning bodies.
