So after all that Wlad still doesn't have the WBA belt, what a sham

No offenece but I would ban talk about these ****ing ridiculous belts on here- what an utter ****ing sham.

 

Well he does have it, I don't know why he isn't holding it there though. He is the official champion apparently.

 

to be fair he knew this going into the fight. the super belt is so ugly to.

 

Yeah what a nonsense

They've pretty much managed to kill the concept of a 'champion' now

 

It's the idiots from the media and tv that keep mentioning them so the general public fall for it.

Sky kept bigging it up as the WBO/WBA/IBF championships rather than what it actually was.. THEE Championship.

 

He is holding it, its the red, white and blue one. Its different to Hayes because Hayes was the regular champ whereas Klit is now the super champ. True story unfortunately.

Here's a picture with former WBA super champion Celestino Cabballero with his:

sky and the rest of the media should ignore these idiots and say it just for the ring belt

 

Ring belt is as meaningless.

 

i love how the fans reffer to them as k2 and act as if they're one person.

look at both of them holding the belt, theres room for only ONE champion.

 

Not really. People keep moaning at the Klitschko's for not fighting each other so there can't be only one champion but they both agree that Wladimir is the number 1 in the division. If neither were around, there wouldn't be 2 champions.. there'd be 4 again!

 

you haven't been to the general forum!

its k2 are the best, no one can beat k2, haye needs to fight k2.

 

RE: the rules for the super champion. They give them more time for mandatory title defences, it's usually 1 a year, I think it's 18 months for holding 2 titles and 2 years for 3. They won't be counting the Ring or IBO, I think the old big 3 now count the WBO so he should have 2 years to defend against a mandatory. Oddly enough the regular title holder isn't the mandatory. That's if they haven't completely changed the rules since I read them, or plan to do so when it suits them. They've done that frequently with super champions. It was for unifying a division. Then if you just had the WBA title but made 5 defences. Then guys like Antonio Margarito became super champion despite not one successful defence.

 

But that's just the way it is unfortunately. Nobody can realistically expect two brothers to fight each other. If Haye beat Wlad, he'd have become the #1 in the division then it would have been up to Vitali to beat Haye if he wanted to become the main man. Simples.

Just because they're brothers is irrelevant. It would be like Victor Ortiz moaning that he's got to beat Mayweather and Pacquiao if he wants to become the undisputed king at welterweight.


RE: Larryboys.. there aren't no rules unfortunately mate :-(

 

Ruiz vs Valuev 3 for the vacant title :happy
