    Because he won many of them. So naturally WBC is the greatest ever just like he is.

    LOL

    Fetish is an interesting choice of words.

    Out of the main 4 belts (WBC, WBA, WBO, IBF), what is the most highly regarded, if any??

    I always thought WBA simply cause its the oldest. Anyone??

    A lot of champs are like that. They stick to the organization they have a rapport with. But, he's taken an IBF title and let it go, and will challenge for a WBA title soon and he has been linear champ-the real champ regardless of ABC titles- more than once anyway.

    might it be due to a lower sanctioning fee? or perhaps WBC has better payment terms and offers installment plans? or perhaps due to lower interest rates and fees for delays in the payment of the sanctioning fee? or because floyd is a WBC preferred customer?

    if floyd is all about money, the reasons for his WBC fetish might also be due to money.

    No he's not. They're only good for collecting dust and he ain't paying no sanctioning fees.

    Japanese fighters never fight for any IBF title, at any division, if I'm not mistaken.

    Plus the WBC is the oldest organization out there among the top 4, (WBC, WBA, IBF, WBO) right?

    So, it probably has more prestige, in FMJ's eyes.

    Or maybe he's just chummy with Sulaiman.

    Because it's the prettiest of the ABC belts, naturally. ;)
