Calzaghe not IBO champ?

Post by Zhuge »

Did Calzaghe not win the IBO belt as well as the IBF from Lacy? The IBO website now lists their supermiddle weight title as being vacant.

That sounds more respectable than the current Zab Judah situation where he keeps onto a title simply because someone didn't pay a sanction fee.

Don't go over to the 'Triple Title Event On The Horizon' thread with that attitude, you will get slaughtered.

Never seen so much love for titles there. :lol:
