    old news. Lost IBF cuz Arum wanted to give it to Mikey Garcia cuz Arum didnt want garcia to actually fight for the belt. Then WBA came up with some bull**** that since Gamboa no longer had the IBF, than that means he isnt "Regular" champ or some bull and striped him. Jonathan Barros is a title holder now for ****s sake. ****ING BARROS.

    This is news to me. What you can't fight 12 if it's not a title match ?!

    Usually world title fights are 12. Non title fights or minor titles are 10. Unless its a title eliminator its 12.

    i heard it was because gamboa didnt comply with the ibf rule of not weighing more than 10 pounds after the initial weigh-in on the morning of the fight.

    Good mention. I mean, i might be wrong. but i've never seen a title fight go less than 12. Maybe because it was part of the tourney?? I dont know.

    Arum did not allow him to attend it, but Gamboa was in the weight limit. So IBF strips Gamboa and Garcia gets free title.

    Also, Salido was over the 10 pound limit which meant he was not going to receive the IBF even if he won.

    You might be right .... Except that I can't remember a 12 rounds non title fight, I know that for an eliminator 12 rounds is a must.

    Trinidad vs Roy Jones Jr I think was a 12 round no title fight.

    Shitty ****... Can anyone confirm the round total for his upcoming fight now?
     
  15. He hasnt been "super champ" for a couple of months at least.

    And as for the guy who thinks only title fights can be 12 rounders....wtf!!!???!!!
