    I'm sure we all agree that there are too many belts out there and having one of the "world championship" belts doesn't make you the best in the world.

    How much stock do you put in the Ring belt does whoever holds that belt make him the champion of the division or is it just another useless strap?

    I only really go by the Rings rankings... and i usually go by the Rings champion although there are sometimes exceptions (though i cant think of any right now)

    heavyweights, arguably vitali is deserving of being a champion, but there are valid arguments for wladimir so i dunno.

    The ring belt is the best strap to hold, and more often than not recognises the best man in the division.

    well i have to say yes. if there is no ring magazine champ it can only be won if the number one rated guy in the division fights the number 2 rated guy. If the 2 best guys in the division fight then the winner is obviously the best in that division so therefore should be regarded as champ.

    No. It's the closest thing to it right now, buy don't expect it to stay like that for long. It'll soon be just as corrupt as the ABCs.

    most of the time i think so but not allways. many times the best fighter doesnt hold the title because the top 2 contenders in the division hav to fght each other for it and it doesnt allways

    Can you get that ****in' avatar outta there.

    My kids sometimes look over my shoulder when I'm on here.

    I don't mind them seeing naked babes in whatever pose, but a a spread-eagled woman with a dildo hanging out of her **** is a bit much.

    Thanking you in advance.
