    Since these are the two most scandalous boxing titles, I think they need to be removed and placed on a lower level so heres my list of new titles in order and these titles will depict the UNDISPUTED CHAMPION in each weight class.


    1. The Ring Title
    2. The IBF
    3. The WBO
    4. The IBO

    There it is the new titles to the Undisputed Championship

    The same WBO who ranked Gary Lockett number one? The same IBO who don't enforce mandatories and are basically just a piggy back belt?

    How?

    I would normally agree but they're declaring the winner of tonight's fight as their heavyweight champion. Is that right?

    I can't really make a case for any being better or worse than the other. WBO is in Frank Warren's pocket, WBC is in Don King's, WBA has terrible mandatories, **** up the heavyweight division and basically make up the rules as they go along.

    I guess the IBF is the best of a horrible bunch.

    The Ring title is the most legitimate and prestigious, in my eyes.

    The alphabettys are a level below that, IMO - and none are better or worse than the other.

    **** 'em all. I judge fighters by who they fight rather than the ABC titles. If I'm pushed then I'll plump for the Ring title but other than that it's not a massive issue to me.

    Amen. It's about time ALL these alphabet belts were put in the trash can where they belong. They are illegitimate, and the organizations that issue them are PARASITES on the sport of boxing.

    The RING belt is the only legitimate belt in the sport - no bogus rankings, no undeserved contenders fighting for belts, none of the bull****.

    And tonight, we will have a CLEAR HW champion as a result of this!!:happy:happy:happy

    No we won't because-

    1) They may draw.
    2) Vitali.

    The same Ring that never requires the "champ" to defend against a top contender?

    The same Ring that has 12 of 17 titles vacant?

    The same Ring that allows a fighter to bounce around from division to division, and never defend the title?

    The same Ring that is allowing Adamek vs. Gunn for the title?


    just wondering........
