No one was minimizing Texieira! My point was that he shouldn't be allowed to skip Castano, and fight for all four belts yet, because the WBO "gave" him a title after he beat Adames, because Munguia vacated! Charlo did not go from winning a vacant title to a unification fight!
Carlos Adames, Patrick Teixeira now fighting for WBO interim title
Junior middleweight contenders Carlos Adames and Patrick Teixeira had the stakes raised for their upcoming fight on Tuesday.
Adames and Teixeira are scheduled to fight on the Oscar Valdez-Andres Gutierrez undercard at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas on Saturday (ESPN+, 6:30 p.m. ET), but instead of the bout being a world title eliminator for the right to become the mandatory challenger for titlist Jaime Munguia, as originally planned, the bout was sanctioned Tuesday to be for the WBO interim title, with the winner likely to be elevated to the full titleholder at next week's WBO convention in Tokyo.
On top of that, the WBO mandated Texieira to fight Castano a long time ago! I don't know why it's taking so long to make the fight! Maybe Texieira, JUST LIKE YOU, is scared of Castano?
'11th hour' deal made for Patrick Teixeira-Brian Castano fight
JANUARY 29, 2020
Representatives for junior middleweight world titlist Patrick Teixeira and mandatory challenger Brian Castano made a deal for the fight late Tuesday.
Eric Gomez, the president of Golden Boy Promotions, which promotes Teixeira, and Castano promoter Tom Brown of TGB Promotions cut a deal around 11 p.m. ET Tuesday, thus avoiding a purse bid scheduled for Wednesday morning at a hotel in Miami, where the highest bidder would have taken control of promotional rights to the bout.
"We made a deal late, in the 11th hour. It will be a tough, competitive fight," Gomez told ESPN on Wednesday morning, after having previously termed the odds of a deal between the camps as "no chance."
Gomez said the fight would take place on a Golden Boy card in April or May.

Stop it, already...No one “gave” Teixeira a title, he won it in the ring defeating the WBO #1 contender in Adames. If anyone was given a title it was Castańo who beat the WBO #14 ranked Omotoso a bum no one ever heard of for the WBO intercontinental 154 lbs strap, LOL. Get your facts straight that’s the only reason Castańo became the mandatory for Teixeira not because he earn it you idiot. Castańo’s greaseball adviser Sean Gibbons petition the WBO to make him the mandatory, dude is known to be connected w/t the WBO that’s why most of his Filipino boxers he advises hold some version of a WBO title. No ones scared of Castańo least alone Teixeira dude showed was his mettle all about against Adames can’t say the same about Castańo.No one was minimizing Texieira!

Pathetic! The 2016 version of Curtis Stevens that Teixeira faced was a much fresher version than that sad sack 2019 version Omotoso KO’d but forgive me for mentioning that seeing how it doesn’t fit your agenda. Also, let’s disregard how Lemieux had already brutally KO’d Stevens even before he faced Omotoso. Anyhow, at the end of the day Teixeira is a world champion and has bounce back from that defeat from Stevens.Curtis Stevens KOs Patrick Teixeira in second round to hand Brazilian first loss
