Best Governing Body?

Not necessarily, no. I doubt you've researched this as extensively as @lufcrazy or myself tbh.

 

Regularly and usually are very vague terms.

There's always been times where multiple champions have been able to be recognised and there's always been times where an undisputed champion has been saught out.

 

you should never assume

 

I'm not, I'm making an educated guess based on the contents of your posts ITT.

 

Most people won't, because, let's face it, you have to be kind of geeky to be even interested in this kind of stuff.

Same with catch weighs, they've been around forever.

One champ per division is indeed a pipe dream.

 

Re: catch weights - you're not wrong about their longevity, but I still despise them.

Especially as title defenses.

 

WBC because they make new belts and titles every year and make fancy one-off belts AND new weight divisions

More content = more fun!

I'm being sarcastic. They are all corrupt money grubbing scum.

 

before the late 70’s it was usually 1 champion per weight class

USUALLY

 

Haha I do despise them when they become a barrier to fighting. I don't mind them when they enable fights that wouldn't happen otherwise.

Like I'd rather Hopkins vs De La Hoya at 158 then not at all.

But it annoys me that they're even a thing, even though they've always been a thing.

 

But there were always instances of there being a different NYSAC/WBA champ and NBA/WBA champ...in at least one division at pretty much any given time. So....what are you talking about?

 

Look, you said WBA started it by stripping Ali.

I said that isn't true.

You asked for proof.

I provided proof.

Hell IB dedicated a whole thread to this endeavour and posted a link to it.

There's no criteria by which what you said was correct.

 

but USUALLY they recognised the same champion so what are you talking about ?

maybe you guys should google the meaning of usually

 

you provided no proof at all now be quiet your getting annoying

 

Well for one, I provided proof since you said WBA started it and I showed you organisations prior to WBA that also recognised and stripped champions.

For another, no matter how quiet or noisy I am has no bearing on this since it's an (admittedly one sided) exchange online via typed words.

And if getting factual is the same as getting annoying, I feel that says more about you than it does about me.

 

what I said was that having multiple champions in the same weight class wasn’t the norm before the WBA stripped ali in the late 70’s and you have not been able to dispute that at all ok son
