BoxingScene has confirmed that the WBA will derecognize the boxer’s current 130lbs reign, effective Saturday evening. Roach, 25-1-2 (10 KOs), will enter the ring as the recognized WBA junior lightweight titleholder but then immediately lose that honor, regardless of the outcome from his challenge of WBC interim 140lbs titlist Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz, 28-3-1 (18 KOs).
