    Strum is one of these beltholders that no one really cares about. Leave him to pad his record and fight cans.

    one of sturms big giant defenses

    Felix Sturm vs Jamie Pittman

    Pittmans record was 16-0 (thows up a red flag already)

    15th fight (fight right before sturm)
    fights a guy 6-4-1 for WBA Pan African middleweight title ???
    14th fight Tshepo Mashego 15 wins-7 losses
    13th fight Nonoy Gonzales 22 wins and 19 losses
    12th fight Komgrit Nanakorn 8 wins and 5 losses
    11th fight William Gare 21 wins and 11 losses
    10th fight Paz Viejo 1 win and 6 losses
    9th fight Somchai Chimlum 10 wins-4 losses
    8th fight Anont Donpradith 6-1
    7th fight 0 wins and 4 losses

    so someone want to tell me how another guy gets a shot at a world title by fighting club fighters and not a top 10 guy at all?
    then fun guy to dissect next will 14-0 Koji Soto , whol also got a crack at sturms belt...
    PATHETIC ONCE AGIAN WBA

    just think
    Roy Jones and Bhop fought for the Vacant IBF middleweight t title back in the day..#1 vs #2

    The WBC and WBA are really pathetic. It's like they constantly tried to outdo each other by doing the stupidest thing possible.

    WBA fails again. Gevor should have that belt anyway.

    Another problem with this 2 title bull****, what happens if the regular beltholder unifies? Does he become a super regular champ?

    Sturm won´t fight in the next time due to the legal issues with his (former) promoter Universum. I guess that´s why he got elevated instead of stripped because it´s not his fault.

    Ah I get it. "Super" means "Paper" in WBA-English?

    fair points... those were NOT mandatory defenses, and Universum tend to milk their champions, especially if they are as big as Sturm is in Germany (you could put on a clown, and 5 mill people will tune up).

    But tell, whom did RJJ fight afterwars? Shall we dissect all those fire and police men he fought? Just relax...and stop hating, there are other things in life.

    Sturm has possibly a very long legal battle in front of him. He probably won't fight in the next month, when his mandatory defence is due.

    On the other hand, he's one of the cash cows of German boxing and his next fight, if there is one, will be huge...and the 'superchamp' share that WBA will get will also be HUGE. Those guys are corrupt as hell, but they ain't dumb for sure.

    The regular chump can't unify. His title is utterly useless. It's no better then an "interim" title.

    The WBA is pulling the same crap at 147lbs.

    You have Mosley as the Super Champion. Senchenko as the Regular Champion and in a few weeks M'Baye is fighting Decarie for the Interim title.

    Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!
