I was going to post somthing similar.
The wba are IMO the worse of the so called big 4(wbc,ibf,wbo).
The are always more than happy to strip fighter of belts they have won in the ring and instal undeserving mandotary challengers.
Also this "super champion" idea is the most stupid and crazy idea I have ever heard of in boxing or any other sport.
Its a bit like South Africa being the "Super" rugby world champions and New Zealand being the regular champs.
No wonder Joe Public fing it hard to follow boxing.
Fuck the wba!![]()
Balls
Thanks

I say what goes around comes around. Holyfield got his ass handed to him vs Lennox Lewis. the bout was ruled a draw. I gave Evander 2 rounds in that fight. Now he knows how it feels to be on the other end of a bull shit decision.

After the unfortunate events at the weekend where a boxer was shamelessly robbed of the WBA title, measures need to be taken to ensure this doesnt happen again . I understand this wasnt your decision however it reflects badly on your organisation if nothing is done to correct this error. Suggestion - To reverse the decision or order an immediate rematch.

Holyfield 68%

For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
46-year-old former heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield has reportedly filed a protest today with the WBA over his loss to WBA champion Nikolai Valuev on Saturday in Zurich, Switzerland. "I don't know why the judges did that, but it's an injustice," Holyfield told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "We're filing a protest that basically says, 'we want you to overturn this.' I just want what's rightfully mine. I didn't lose. I won." Meanwhile Holyfield's trainer Tommy Brooks has leveled charges of corruption. "I think it was just some home cooking for a promoter's fighter," Brooks told the newspaper. "I think somebody was just greasing somebody's palms." WBA attorney Robert Mack said the WBA Champions Committee will consider the protest and if it is upheld a rematch could be ordered.

Why won't these things just go silently away! A hiccup. A little pimple. Instead...
Now we need to trump up the residue of this farce of a match, and give it an exaggerated angle of importance? Whew!
If you didn't know these fighters put their life on the line each and everytime they step up in the ring, One mans legacy was robbed of him becoming the only 5th time heavyweight champion of all time, Sorry if you think it insignificant.....So there...Hiccup and a big fuking whew
