    I don't see why not. Have a rematch with that Dominguez bum Phil Austin found. That would make Danny a 4 time 4 weight world champ. Impressive stuff.Phil Austin would find a way to justify it.

    geee i never knew i had that much of an affect on Austin! :lol:

    Tarver fight, LJD posted that Danny made 1 million easy profit from the bout. I suspected he didnt do so well either but LJD put up the figures :good

    The POLE was alot cheaper than Tarver and the Undercard cost him sweet fark all!

    there is a big jump between Light Heavyweight and Cruiserweight. You go up 3kg from SM to LH, then 11kg from LH to Cruiser.

    Add up purses, overseas opponents & teams, travel, 7-day stay in 5* accommodation, meals etc, likewise for world title junket boys (refs/judges & title supervisors). WBC & WBA don't have set sanction fee..they take substantial % cut out of overall purse @ promoter's expense. I reckon WBA super champ Chris John would've alone got 200k, on basis Indonesian TV networks will part with both arms & legs for rights.... Unfortunately it didn't pan-out that way. Would you like me to go on??

    Anton, John wasnt paid 200k & the POLE didnt want no wear near as much as Tarver, take in mind LJD tells us Danny cleared 1 million for the Tarver fight. The POLE fight may have not sold as well but like i said, he never outlaid a tone of cash for this show like he did the Tarver one, they went all in with the Tarver show and only cleared 1 million, it cost them more to put it on and they were lucky to make the 1 million back, Tarver not being the champion got paid more than Green for that nights work in the office.

    Dont belive everything u hear m8. I cant say much more than that.

    **** Off with that ****.

    I remember i was a fan of Boxing when the IBF wasnt **** and i was a fan when the WBO went through the same ****.

    I bet in 5 years IBO will be just another ABC Belt.

    Its already had 100 times over better matchups than the WBU ever had.

    At the moment i agree some of the fights are well **** but the IBF and WBo went through the same ****ing thing as Sallywinder mentioned in a earlier post.

    So your saying
    the WBO title fights of
    Lonnie Bradley vs Randy Smith at 160
    Henry Akinwande vs Jeremy Williams at Heavy

    And there are plenty of IBF **** World Title fights aswell at the start.

    Like i said IBO in 5 years will just be another way to win a World Title.

    Anyone like youself thinking it wont is ****ing blind. I remember all the Boxing Writers saying this same **** about the IBF then the WBO that you are preaching now about the IBO.:deal

    :rofl I used WBU as an example of a bull**** title being used somewhere, never said it was as good as the IBO. IBO has always had random decent title fights, but on the whole the belt hasnt really improved since it was introduced. is that so hard for you to comprehend? whether it was Pascal, Darchinyan, Hatton, Tarver, it didnt really matter, because the holders of all the other titles(those that aret vacant) were garbage. WBO had a **** start just like any org, but saying the IBO that no one outside of SA and Australia even bat an eyelid at will become accepted as a 5th org is just bull****.

    some interesting reading here:
    [ame]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_current_world_boxing_champions[/ame]

    In a nutshell, the WBC formed to formalise world title boxing, as it was not done so at that point. The NBA therefore became WBA to run alongside/compete with the WBC.

    At the 1983 WBA conference some US officials had a dispute with WBA heads, so formed their own org in the IBF.

    At the 1988 WBA conference some central/latin american officials had a dispute with WBA heads, so formed the WBO.

    Also interesting is:
    The NYSAC was founded in 1920, when the [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walker_Law"]
    This content is protected
    [/ame] legalized prizefighting.
    This content is protected
    The National Boxing Association (NBA) was established in 1921 by other U.S. states to counter the influence of the NYSAC.
    This content is protected
    Sometimes the NYSAC and the NBA recognized different boxers as World Champion,
    This content is protected
    especially in 1927–40.

    In 1962, the NBA renamed itself the [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Boxing_Association"]

    One Leon will never admit to. fckn coward, knows he was wrong and fcked up, fed information that was bullsht, basicly put in a corner and fed sht like a mushroom , got free tickets and all and thought he was in the know! hahaha... even wrote an article in the next isssue of the fist about the fight but mention NOT ONE FCKING WORD about the catchweight bullsht!@ go figure, when ur sucking hyders nutsack thats what u got to do lol and the **** has the gaul to say his never wrote a one sided article.

    typical armchair expert cant see the diffrence from sht and clay! even after BJ flores had to drop his undies to make 195LB< u would think after he asked Austin about catchweight and Austin told him nope, then after the weigh in he would follow up the question and ask WTF BJ threw off his undies for if it wasnt catchweight, but nope, Leons a fckn moron and has no integrity as a reporter/writer/jurno.
