    You have got a bit mixed up.
    Quigg didnt win the WBA regular title, but was awarded the title.
    Quigg had been made up to WBA regular champ after being interim WBA champ for a while.
    It was his first fight as WBA regular champ that he drew in his first defence, which I think is what you are thinking about.

    Super Hans is correct. Quigg is WBA regular champ who has made 6 defences

    He was "awarded" it. He never took it from Rigo, "The Man".

    It's a plastic reign, simple.

    Awarded a belt and you draw in your first defence! :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Of course I have heard of them. I just noted who sprung to mind straight away.
    Also I dont like to pass comment too much on fighters that I didnt watch the career of as they happened.
    Maybe you should run along, as you jump to conclussions too quickly

    I dont think anyone is disagreeing with you on that part.
    Rigo holds the full WBA title. Hans mentioned that Quigg was the regular WBA champ, and that is correct regardless of drawing on his first defence.
    I would also add that Golovkin was awarded his WBA title after like Quigg, having held the WBA interim title, he was then also awarded the full title of WBA Super champ after that.
    Sadly many reigns can be called plastic, as often titles arent won in the way that you are implying or vacant titles are won.

    Not really relevant seeing as Rigo holds the full version...

    Quigg is trying to get a fight with Frampton. You do realise boxers fight for money right? Of which Rigo brings next to none.

    But Quigg ACTS AS IH HE IS THE CHAMP of the division, when we all know it's really Rigo.

    Now f*ck off back to the main and start a stupid thread about "Zaggers", you biased prat.

    Mega lolz at you calling someone biased.

    And how exactly does Quigg ACT AS IF HE IS THE CHAMP of the division? I see he constantly talking of unifying with Frampton so he certainly recognizes Frampton as a champ.

    You'd back Joe, Kell and any other cr*p Brit till you can no longer type, even if you know they'd get hammered.
