I told yall that WBO belt is a joke and device to give fighter's relevancy they don't deserve. Tim bradley retained the WBO belt against Rios, he vacates it and Vargas wins again in less than a year lmao, funny how top rank always gets a pass for their bullshyt match ups and musical chairs with that WBO paper belt.
tbh I also don't get it how nobody called out them for that so far

Haymon never talks...
but I didn't eve hear criticism from Schaefer when he was around

Round here we've talked how the WBO is in Bobs pocket for years

The media don't say shyt Cuz 90% of them dikkride Bob or don't want to lose they access to HBO/TR fights

Other promoters don't say shyt Cuz one day they fighter might be in line for a WBO title shot N you don't want to ever fukk that up

Floyd spoke on that a few yrs back

Until Haymon takes over fully (PPVs, all the young prospects wanting to sign with him etc.) nobodies gonna say shyt about Were Bob's Organization.

Arum may be an old tricky jew cocksucker, BUT, dude still has the most weight and money to throw around.

What will be funny is when Cinnamon wins the WBO off BJS. BC everyone knows how bad 97g wants that belt. Unless the plan is Canelo beats BJS then fights lil g for a truly undisputed champ :ohhh:

they'd probably end up fighting to a draw if that was the case :francis:

Who has it then? Floyd won it off Pacman but WBO stripped him soon after, no?
WBO stripped floyd because he had to give up the 154 belts he had per their bylaws on top of paying the fee..he didn't want to give up the belts..the bradley Vargas faced for the vacant belt that bradley won.
Bradley vacated because ali was his mandatory and he got offered the third fight with pac. So Vargas and Ali faced off with Vargas ko'ing ali...so Vargas is the current wbo welterweight champion

Floyd vacated and Bradley fought Vargas for it, and won. Sadam Ali was Bradleys mandatory but, BATB decided to fight Rios and vacated the title.

Vargas (who didn't fight during this time period, but became the #2 in line for the WBO) then fought and beat Sadam ':ld:' Ali, and now holds the WBO strap.

Corny money grab but I think Vargas is kind of underrated.
As far as Arum not forcing Manny to fight Crawford :yeshrug:
Haymon not forcing any of his tier A guys to fight Spence. Garcia and Spence both fighting dudes worse than Vargas (berto/bundu) instead of each other :mjlol:. All these promoters trying maximize dollars out here

:usure: the same Vargas that was a right hand in the 12th round away from getting washed by Bradley??? That lil moment of glory is the only reason he still has a semblance of value at this time. he was much better under Roger's tutelage. Spence was on the IBF title hunt. Since Brook is on to other excursions, he's now going the common opponent route with Keith Thurman. Haymon and Spence are doing their best to close off all avenues for these big names to go down and force them to see Spence in the near future. As for Danny....I still believe they're trying to reserve that perfect record and demographic just in case Floyd decides to come back.
