    The **** is this farce? Does that mean Peterson doesn't hold the WBA title? He did receive the belt.

    :rofl:rofl:rofl

    This is a 'new low' - even by the WBA standards.

    If that is true, what is the path to becoming the WBA super champion?

    E.G. - If Povetkin beat W Klitschko (hypothetically obviously) would Povetkin become the super champion for beating Wlad, and Wlad become the Hyper champion for losing the super championship?

    I don't understand what the big deal is to be honest, the rematch will decide either way and the winner takes all so it's only a matter of time, unless Khan decides to fight someone else which I don't see happening

    The rematch does, but why make their organization look even more shittier than it is by reinstating Amir if the rematch was going to decide who would be the holder anyway? It makes no sense and it makes Amir and the WBA look like morons.

    yeah I mean why would Peterson want to be called a world champion after winning the 1st fight when he's just fighting the same guy again right?

    Amir must be a little confused, ****s couldn't even spell Peterson's name right though.
