    Disagree with you think Callum is an excellent fighter if you think Callum is a bad world champion you must think rocky fielding is a terrible night champion??

    Rocky stopped zuega beat him convincing

    Groves didn’t know no what how to deal with smith

    Alex Arthur, he seems like a nice fella but he was promoted from interim WBO Champ, and then lost to Nicky Cook, who could also claim the worse World Champion title. Sorry to these two guys who are clearly a lot tougher than me,

    David Haye was the cruiserweight Andy heavyweight champion?

    I know you mean to win the belt but I’m team bomber so you can’t bring him down

    I like Alex Arthur I see a lot of his interviews and be he talks a lot of sense wouldn’t have classed him as a proper world champion he wasn’t intern, shows how funny a game boxing is as Alex beat burns cook beat Arthur Martinez beat cook burns beat martinez

    This annoys me, he was a alphabet champion, nothing more. Won a vacant title against a guy who wasn’t in the top ten or even 15 of the proper world rankings. It means little.

    Appreciate the thread mate, but this is what is wrong with the game. Unless you are ranked number 1 in your division to me, you aren’t a proper world champion. At least tonight Bellew is boxing for the proper world title, because again winning a vacant bauble against another guy who didn’t even get selected for the WBSS tournament 6 months later means little. WBC or not.

    At least he lost it to a real champion so deserves respect for that.

    Herbie Hide, two time wbo champion, got to be up there with the worst surely.

    Interesting post as I would have taken the Hide that won the pretty much worthless wbo title against Michael Bent to beat Deontay Wilder pretty easily.

    Continuing with this theme, Michael Bentt?

    Stopped in a round on his debut, then won two more fights in his entire career (against guys who were 14-10-1 and 4-2) before beating Morrison. Stopped by Hide in his first defence.

    I must confess to not seeing any of his fights bar Morrison and Hide but surely he must be up there?

    Zab Judah was not past it 140lbs ffs. Cory Spinks was decent at 154, easily beats everyone else on that list.
