    Garcia getting a world title shot after failing multiple drug tests and losing to “Rolly” Romero in his last 2 fights is why boxing is finished.

    Barrios´ title reign is an absolute joke.

    Wins the interim title by beating Ugas, who was coming of a loss, and a year plus long layoff(he should not have been ranked to begin with).
    Defends the interim belt against Fabio Maidana, LMAO
    Gets elevated to full champ.
    Defends against Abel Ramos, who is 2-3 in his last 5, but actually is a pretty decent boxer, so of course Barrios manages a draw with him.
    Defends against 46 year old Manny Pacquiao who is coming out of retirement - its another draw.

    Mario Barrios surely has to be a contender for the worst world champion in boxing history

    I genuinely believe he’s worse than Rolly

    Currently it's hard to say but I think Lewis Crocker is more worse than these two.

    I was believed some months ago that the Light Flyweight had the worst champion but now than Kyosuke Takami defeated Erick Rosa and will defeat Rene Santiago the 17th December...

    It's probably the Welterweight division who have the worst champions currently in all weight classes.

    If Ryan lost to Rollie I wouldn’t be shocked if he lost against Barrios. That being said Rollie hits way harder so maybe Ryan won’t feel deterred by Barrios’ power.

    The match up itself is okay, but its pretty disgraceful that this is for a title.

    There have been plenty of worse champs who briefly held a major belt, but this truly is a candidate for the worst title reign. Has to be up there with Haye´s heavyweight run.
