    WBA are the worst boxing org around.

    its kind of embarresing when mates ask, so who is the world champion of a division & you run off 3 names, then they ask what is a silver belt etc......

    A guy at my work couldnt understand that either, he was sure Lauryn Eagle was a legit world champion because she has the belt and they said so on the footy show.

    Then I explained there are about 10-20 organisations handing out world titles but only 4 of them are considered a true world title. I explained the situation with the Ring magazine being handed out to the best in the division fighting each other. So at some points there can be 5 "real" world champs in each division.

    He gave me this look:

    One champ with no mandatory is better than 4 people wearing the same belt in one weight class

    You think it's better that the below 4 are "WBA Champs @ 168"

    Nope, i think 4 champs is bullsht, its just a way for these greedy ****s to make more money, in saying that, two wrongs dont make a right. imo it needs to be goverment regulated as these orgs cant be trusted as far as you can throw them.
