Surely the WBO have to sanction the fight between Ola and Ramirez.
Oh hang on I forgot that means means they'll lose one extra sanctioning fee.
You kinda feel sorry for the lad he's beaten a decent fighter in Enzo and now he's stuck in a bit of a limbo.

He mentioned Boxrec.
Hi Ola! 
D
I hope he gets a title shot. He deserves it. I really want to know what he's made of.

A slight update that wasn't mentioned in the interview. Ola flew back to LA this week and should resume training with Freddie Roach in the next few weeks.

He does deserve a title shot he came oer here to fight Enzo and then he wins for the Interim belt so surely he deserves a shot

Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing a return with Enzo providing he wins on Saturday but he shouldn't have to go over old ground. The WBO have really did the dirty on both Enzo and Ola in March by convincing them to take a fight on the basis of a 90 day title shot while also sucking a sanctioning fee out of them for the interim belt.

If Enzo had won that fight, things might have been different.

This is Boxing.
A crooked sport and a Mug's game.
He deserves a title shot, but will he get one?
No, because he does not bring in money, crowd and will probably upset the house fighter.
You can probably imagine why Boxing is dead.

Give Enzo a rematch. He wants one. Ola should get good money for it and I reckon he would KO Enzo again.

Im not sure I think Enzo would conserve more energy this time and not go looking for that KO. Ola is very clever so he may outsmart Enzo again but if pushed for a result I would go for Enzo UD
