- That section list all of the championshpis won both past and present, the WBO has by far more credibility that the IBO that's not even a fair comparison, and while it doesn't have the prestige that the WBC, WBA and IBF have its one of the four mayor organizations nonetheless. - Caribbean~H.Q. 04:17, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- I still think the WBO is deserving as a solid fourth promotion at the moment, to be real the promotion has had a good run lately with some defenses of WBO championships headlining HBO PPVs, now I do think that only these four organizations should be represented to avoid the boxing pages looking overcrowded like Ricky Hatton. Its good to know we have somebody that follows amateur boxing in the encyclopedia, I myself try to follow it as close as posible, about Crespo he was 163-7 [2] over the course of his career, that article also provides a short overview of his accomplishments and a little about his personal life. - Caribbean~H.Q. 07:02, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- An article will probably not be able to gather enough information based on the short span of his life, but I have been assesing a few articles and have been considering starting a list of Puerto Rican boxing champions (both professional and amateur) that icludes brief biographies of boxers as well as links for more complete articles. - Caribbean~H.Q. 23:16, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

- The issue is that the OMB has gathered a few quality champs over the years that have been exclusively OMB champions, some of wich have even been recognized by The Ring, that will grant them enought notability to have an article of their own, that's a distintion no other non HOF recognized title shares (exept the IBO but they are just absorbing Hatton's and others credibility).- Caribbean~H.Q. 23:22, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah but they were recognized before the golden boy bought the company, about Crespo you should probably begin an article on a sub page and develop it well before creating an article, just to avoid people claiming A7 on it. - Caribbean~H.Q. 23:32, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
