    In a way it makes sense. I think the WBO figures if he has another belt he will never defend his WBO title. Not that I agree, but I see their point.

    Martinez is the Champ and the WBO stripping him won't make the slightly bit of difference. They can **** off, basically.

    I'm surprised they stripped him so soon. Everyone knows Martinez is the lineal and Ring champion, it would look better for the WBO to have a unified lineal champion holding their belt rather than someone who has no recoginiton as a champion to boxing fans.

    Martinez may well return to 154 anyway vacating all the titles, making this a moot point, but common sense should have prevailed here.

    No it's not, because it's not happening!!!!
    Kelly is moving up. He's just not certain if it's SMW or LHW. He'll decide over the summer.

    They do that? Thats a bit soon isnt it... I thought I remember guys having belts at different weight classes before. Didnt pac hold different titles? Didnt he get one from Hatton then Cotto?

    IDK theyre worth less and less these days, even compared to ten years ago.
