    I don't really understand that.

    By my reckoning if Cordoba wins he's interim champ if Dunne wins he's World Champion.

    It's not even a proper world title......just the regular strap.

    How can he be the WBA champion when Caballero is already the man??

    I'd rather have a WBO or IBO world title and defend that before trying to unify with one of the big belts

    RTE are talking this up like it's for a proper title

    Naz could pull it off, Dunne is just wasting my time. This is better, Irish music and a walk down to the ring, got me right up for the fight now!

    Cordoba was interim champion, Caballero was proper WBA champ. Caballero beat Molitor to unify his title with the IBF strap and thus became WBA 'super' champ. Cordoba was bumped up from interim to regular champ. Complicated, I know.

    Never known the challenger have such a long entrance.....Naz used to do it to **** of his opponents when they were already in the ring!

    What Dunne will get from it is a win over a very good, World-Class fighter and a high ranking. Might push himself in the frame for a match with Cabellero, though I'm not sure that's a reward.

    Still don;t think Dunne has what it takes to beat Cordoba, but I could be wrong.

    I know. Bernard is far too pale for these flashy intros.

    Cordoba wearing the same gloves as Bernard. Wonder if that will have a psychological effect on him, Bernard always wear them gloves and Cordoba usually wear Reyes if I'm correct. Does Dunne wear pillows???

    Cordoba looks confident, as does Dunne.

    :lol: What's up with these epic entrances? These guys are fighting for a regular WBA title, not for the fate of mankind.

    Thinking about it, it would be hilarious if Dunne got starched in round 1 again after this big build up.

    Don't think it will happen mind. Cordoba seems a chess player.
