    Bar the Calzaghe unification with Kessler, he never seems to got that route suppose he does not need to with the WBO always waiting in the wing. :D

    Yeah, he does seem to only deal with the BO. Richie Woodhall is the only one i can think of now, but it's late and i'm inebriated.

    most promoters have a strong relationship with certain belts. Hennesey and Maloney focus on the WBC, Hattons with the WBA. Just that Warren has a better one.

    :huhSo you think the WBO is better? Its probabaly the easiest belt to win and retain of the 4.

    I think Rob means, Warren has a stronger connection with the WBO then any of the other promoters have with the BC and BA.

    I think Mick gets his fighters shots at the WBC because usually his fighters do it the proper route, Warren seems to like to take short cuts.

    He means better links. As shown in that more of his fighters end up in mandatory positions.

    In this day in age there is no such thing as a stronger belt they are all **** but the WBA are definitely at the bottom of the pile.

    Maybe so Warren fighters at world class usually make lot ore money than the other world class fighters in the country, doing it that way.

    also fighters get stuck at domestic/european level. have to many tough fights and peak to soon.

    Lennox Lewis was the last fighter to win Commonwealth, European and then British/Lonsdale outright before moving on to win world honours.
