    I should know this, but I'm a little cloudy on this subject. To keep the belt the fighter has to fight the mandatory challenger? And how often is there a mandatory challenger?

    Once a year if I'm not mistaken. You have to fight somebody the organization feels is "worthy of a title defense." I believe they have to be ranked in the top 10 of the specific organization.

    Those in the know, feel free to correct me. I'm just going off of memory.

    Thanks. I've always wondered about that.
