    Its a sin to call a Interim title a world title in my books, thats just a promotors trick to sell tickets to the ignorant.

    If you cant unify it then it aint the real Mccoy.

    Of course i hope Casey wins and makes loads of money. But dont treat the fans like idiots and always call a spade a spade.

    are you smoking crack gunning Acosta is not signed to Peters and Hyde has a good working relationship with the Cubans current manager:deal

    I'd go as far as two say the three cubans would have a spot on this card...

    there is no WBA superchampion at 122.....

    there is a regular champion the winner of casey-rigo would be forced to unify with him some time in mid to late 2011:deal

    Ive always felt that the fighter makes the belt rather than the belt making the fighter....

    I thought the Cubans were persona non grata with Mr. Hyde, no? Obviously you are closer to Hyde than most on here so may you could let us know the craic.

    So now there is a chance of Acosta on the card - what do you think the chance are that Barry would play ball? I'd say about as much chance as you turning down a double cheeseburger.

    What about Acosta v Hyland, or getting the Kikorama in on the act.

    Does Cabellero automatically lose his Super Champion stats because of his loss enough though the title wasnt on the line?

    An Interim Title is nothing more than a 'Gap fight'.
    To more or less 'fill-a-void'.

    Like the 'Northern Hemisphere Inter-Continental Atlantic Ocean Border Championship'

    its a step up to bigger and better things though, if you win it you will most likely a chance to fight for legitimate belts soon after

    Yes, but sometimes the boxing organizations have 'phoney' rating positions.
    Like if your the Oriental & Pacific Boxing Federation Champion, you get an automatic #8 rating, no matter how good or bad you are.

    Ryan Greene WTKO1 Laszlo Haaz

    Jamie Conlan and Troy James currently boxing an exhibition as both opponents snowed in (or out more to the point).

    I think Ryan has blown himself out. Haughian made heavy weather of the first couple of rounds. Nice to see him coming on strong now
