    After all the bull**** they pulled, now again with khan, do you still consider them a legit big sanctioning body or are they downgraded to wbf status in the eyes of the fans?

    They are a disgrace.

    The WBA and WBC seem determined to devalue everything that makes them worthwhile.

    Explaining the WBA super champion rule to a casual boxing fan is the most embarrassing thing in the World.:-(

    Top sanctioning body = yes
    Legit sanctioning body = hell no!

    it's incredibly hard to respect them or the champions they have in place most of the time. They don't seem to understand how an interim champion is supposed to work. It's not so bad when they have a super champion who actually falls under their guidelines for becoming a super champ but most of the time they don't do that.

    Prestige-wise, the WBA is the 1st established sanctioning body in the world. Everything else follows it's footsteps.

    However, all the crap introduced by the Mendoza's are ruining the organization's name.

    None of them are particularly legit. The IBF is the best of the big 4 in terms of following their own rules, but that's only because they're subject to an outstanding court order to do so. And all four of their ranking committees are utter ****ing jokes.

    they all suck.

    it's not difficult to figure who the best in each division is, so just go by that

    The WBA is completely legitamate and a World Class Title Organization

    It's the most prestigious belt to have actually.

    The WBA is the worst of them, though the WBC isn't too far behind. Both are disgusting and need to be smacked into place.
