    Hey lads, I'm new here!
    Can someone clear up for me how some magazines and websites are saying that Caballero is defending the WBA title on Saturday night? I'm always amazed that Ring Magazine have Caballero listed as the WBA Champ, when Bernard Dunne has the belt!

    Caballero is the "super" champ and Bernard is the regular champ and Poonswat is the interim champ...........

    its a big mess

    but tbh i can see why ring only recognise cabby as the champ

    we've all been through this before but in my eyes Celestino Caballero is the WBA champion. He's held the title for 3 years.

    its a monster alright - I run through both of there career highlights, the purse bidding and Poonsawats style. It ended up 2,933 on the word count! Terry will probably cut half of it out.

    Did he keep refering to himself in the 3rd person as usual Paddy? Pelenchin this and Pelenchin that. Annoying ****ing habit is that.

    I think Lopez would absolutely whup him, but whether his team agree or not I think they'll go ahead with that fight if they can.
    Lopez would probably bring him the biggest purse of his career and a date on HBO where if he were to win, he'd probably be able to use that to springboard to Featherweight with big fights against Gamboa or Chris John.

    If he loses.....well he still got his payday
