    Seriously, I don't think I've ever seen a guy hold a title this long without defending it. Anybody have a bead on his whereabouts?

    nothing heard about his retirement!
    But if he is retired that would mean steve herelius is the new wba champion!

    Isnt he a Don King fighter? This is how you know the WBA are magnificently corrupt. He has held this title since KO'ing Arslan dam near two years ago.

    He was supposed to defend his title last October but the challenger got injured, mornings been heard about him since. He should have been stripped by now, but he's been out for so long that he'd probably lose to Herelius or Brudov his mandatory.

    That's a damn shame. I guess Jones is a good "watermark" for how shitty the WBA can get.

    He was supposed to defend his title against Valery Brudov, then Brudov pulled out, then he wanted back in, then there were contract issues, then Brudov pulled out again.


    That's as far as I remember.

    Guillermo heard Floyd say he's like the Super Bowl and only fights once a year.

    Guillermo, refusing to be upstaged, decided he's going to be like the Olympics. That kind of competitiveness is the stuff champions are made of.
