    I don't consider anyone of them legit belts. I just used the alphabet belts now as a gauge of where a fighter ranks in my personal rankings which have a Champion in each division.

    Generally a fighter with an alphabet will be fighting better opponents than one who doesn't.

    That's just sidestepping the question. Do you consider Zibk the WBC champion?

    Yes.

    Do you consider Rigo vs Willie Casey a world title fight?

    Bollocks. Mayweather's only ignoring them because it suits him at the moment. he still casts them up when he needs to and it was a HUGE part of his excuses ove rthe last few years.

    Paper title. He was given the belt, he didn't win it.

    No, of course not.

    However I do consider Lee to be the WBA champion, who got his title through Poonswat, who won it from Dunne, who you can never allow be mentioned on here without trying to discredit. You can't have it both ways Rob.

    This wouldn't be another example of bias would it? :p

    Yep, as soon as people point out that an undefeated record does not make one a great fighter, he then starts talking about his belts "fye diffent weight divisions, I'm tha uno, the creme de la creme, baby I'm the cash cow, all roads lead to Floyd Mayweather. Fye diffent weight divisions!"

    All the belts should be considered as just tools to help stop your trousers from falling down. None of them have any meaning.

    Well his next fight will be Chavez Jnr. Likely in Mexico and if he beat him there he would deserve some respect. After that his mandatory would be the Lemiuex vs Rubio winner.

    Look you can slag of allot of people in this situation but Zbik is not one of them.

    They're all rubbish. Isn't Martinez THE Champion at this weight though?
