Yes they enforce em quickly. So quickly they stripped Fury 2 weeks after he beat Wlad due to a shady mandatory issue. They are a joke.
Imo better than the WBC and WBA We can find fault with all of them The question wasn't which one is the worst however Not a single ORG or owner of a magazine belt is squeeky clean unfortunately
That s like saying Fleece Johnson is better than a murderer. He is but.....you know. I'm just saying there is no normal way of thinking in which having a santioning body belt over The Ring/TBRB.None.
It s not opinion in this case. It s fact. The IBF have: Frank Snachez 3rd best HW in the world Viddal Riley over Jai Opetaia Conor Benn ranked at 154 altough he hasnt competed there and has never announced his inteions of doing so Devin Haney not in the top 15 WWs. And those are some of the blatant horrible ones,there are plenty of others. It s no opinion,it s fact.
We'll see what the future holds. I want to believe the rating panel will not be influenced much by Turki. It's not like The Ring hasn't make questionable decisions before, like f.e. crowning Vitali their champ in 2004.
Arguing which alphabet belt is the most prestigious, is like debating what type of shyte would you rather eat. They all suck.
I gave you an argument which is irrefutable,hence why you didnt answer back on it. Give me WHY exactly is the IBF belt better than the Ring belt?How?Why?In what sense? I bet you you dont have an answer,the reason being there is none. Oh and insider info:The fighters thsemselves absolutely loathe fighting for the IBF title due to their bogus built in rehydration clause.
Yeah but how many boxers do you know go around saying to everyone ‘I’m the ring magazine champion’? You might not think it’s normal an say it means nothing but there’s plenty of fighters that will gladly say they are the wbc or wba or ibf world champion.
There have been a few. I know there are plenty glad to be BC or BA champ but its more related to pilitics I think.
It's all about the promotion. The Ring Magazine belt was once "the" belt. You don't see fighters presenting WBA or WBC belts before mid 70's. Ring belt was a symbol of a championship status. And it still is to a degree. With Turki's promotional push it may return to its old glory hopefully.
And desperately clinging to the mirage of legitimacy, which provides a cushy existence for doing far call.
The reason being I didn't have the time when I replied to really answer as such So please don't make assumptions I prefer the ORGs over the magazine belt because of the nostalgia I have growing up watching these titles contested frequently , the big fight feel such a belt can bring to a main event I'm totally aware that I'm speaking here as a fan with nostalgic goggles on to a degree but I don't really care I like what I like and make no apologies for it As a poster previously mentioned, not a single kid grows up dreaming of being the Ring mag champ There you go thats part of my opinion Neither anything you state nor I also is factual, it's opinion and preference I personally see the Ring belt moving forward getting used5as a tool for Turki's needs which will make it no better than what we currently have I could probably add more but I'm currently on the move
They are dreaming of becoming the universally recognized champion, not just a title holder, and Ring belt represents that, even if they don't know it. Most of the boxers don't know shyte about boxing history. AJ didn't even know what the lineal champion is.
