It's easily the best in the world, but there have been a number of WBO champs who should really have only been fighting for the commonwealth or Lonsdale belts etc.
Its easy to work out, Warren just buys the lunch! (and optional extras).

Could be, that's what I was wondering. With the WBO being a new and fairly unreputable organization years back, was it just a of win-win cashing in on the UK domestic scene? Calling someone a world champion is fairly self-fulfilling after all, when they already have a market.

You keep putting Cleverly in with names like Taylor, Pac and Mayorga... But none of those guys were Warren hype jobs.
I'll have to give you the benefit of the doubt about fighting 'as an amatuer' (be more vague?), but nothing you've ever posted gives the impression that you know what it's about.
Come on now Adam, Cleverly is a World class fighter he may have lost,! but he lost to a guy
no one wants to face, so you have to give him some credit,! Warren is not ever ones cup of tea
but it's part and parcel of the game.
I support fighters I LIKE, regardless if they are WELSH or not remember there has been many
fine WBO Champions, and crap ones no organization WBC , WBA IBF are whiter than white.
