Barrera fights for the world title on Jan 31

[SweetPea]

Well, that's nice of the WBO to just hand him a title. Late Christmas present?

Now he gets to call himself a 4 division champion .

I'm repping you for this comment bud, because I agree. This is bullshit. How can a 10 rounder be for a world title, and how does his opponent qualify for this shot? For that matter, how does Barrera warrant the #1 WBO ranking in the 1st place?

I'm still pissed Morales didn't get the 4 weight distinction 1st when he boxed David Diaz' head off in one of the most blatent hometown decisions i've ever seen. It really pisses me off they're giving MAB the easy route.

Agree 100%. Barrera may win some bogus sanctioning body interim title belt, but it won't make him a 4 division champ.

We all need to start ignoring sanctioning body belts, they mean NOTHING.
