WBA continues its disastrous title situation at 140 pounds: names Romero champion in recess

The WBA wrote that its junior welterweight title is not vacant, that there was a mistake on its website. According to the WBA the title still belongs to Rolando Romero, but he is injured so his desgination should be champion in recess. Ohara Davies and Ismael Barroso will box for the interim title. Barroso fought Romero and was jobbed out of a championship on a ridiculously quick stoppage despite his prior manhandling of Romero.
