Mandatories?
WBO has no respect for mandatories. Calzaghe has been allowed to pick and choose whatever opponent he's wanted for his entire reign. WBO does nothing whatsoever to force mandatories.
Now if this was because they wanted to leave room for more important fights - it would be acceptable or even commendable. But looking over Calzaghe's record that is not the case.
For this reason alone the WBO should still not be regarded as highly as "the other 3" organisations.
