    Molitor UD. I've seen the man improve so much over the years that I think he can overcome Celestino's freakish height. I still wonder how someone that tall campaigns at that weight :?

    They have only 1 WBA champion. That's what matters.

    They had a 122 title fight and a 122 interim of the same card for **** sake, it is the worst of the worst and same with the 115 title they 3 champions, the best thing Molitor can do is fight Caballero and then refuse to pay the fees and public state that there should not other guys calling them self the WBA 122 chmpion when I beat the man.

    dude. I happen to like the super champion / regular champion disinction. It has a purpose other than to make the WBA money. It keeps the titles unified, therefore keeping the integrity of the sport.

    If you want me to explain it in depth, i can do it, its not that complicated. But if you just wanna hate on the organisations, then be my guest. I don't like em much either.

    when a fighter has a title, he has certain mandatories to fulfill, but at the same time sometimes that fighter wants to take on other opponents who are not his mandatories. What the WBA does is it allows other fighters to fight for an interim title, and at that point if the WBA champ does not fight the interim champ by the mandatory defence date, then the interim champ gets his belt.

    Think of INTERIM CHAMP as just another way of saying MANDATORY CHALLENGER.

    as for the SUPER CHAMPION, think of that as being the UNIFIED CHAMPION. If it wasn't for this, then every time a champion unifies the belts, he would have to fight so many mandatories every nine months that he would ultimately get stripped, and then we would never have unified titles over a long period of time. The super champion is the REAL WBA CHAMPION, the REGULAR WBA CHAMPION is just keeping the title warm and fulfilling the WBA mandatories. In case the unified champion gets stripped of his other titles, then he has to fight the regular champion in order to keep his WBA champion status.

    I know how it works, You are saying it good, it just **** amazes me, 1 work champion that it, if these ****s the WBA are not so greed with fees. it hurts the sport and confuses fans, Why the **** is the mandatories every 9 months, It should once a year at the most and you unify give more time to forfill these things, having 3 titles at the same time hurts the sport big time.

    Caballero's chin is absolute granite.

    Molitor is a crazy gym rat with insane stamina, who could go for 50 rounds.

    Caballero is 5'11 and a mad dehydrating *******.

    Molitor UD.
