    Morrison was the WBO champ. How did he get the shot? World class amatuer doesn't garantee world class professional.

    They won, but the thread is asking worse fighters to get title shots. I never heard of Bentt before the Morrison fight. Tommy blew that fight with partying and not taking Bentt seriously.

    Beat me to. Ruiz compounded it by CHEATING once he got the shots too. And his connections with King allow this talentless slug to get away with it.
