    There is only one belt that matters; the lineal title. Which in itself is up to the beholder.

    Everyone needs to stop pretending the sanctioning bodies have any credibility. They don't warrant respect. Stop respecting them as if they are an indicator of anything. Simply judge who a boxer fights and how the fight plays out.

    So what if Fury-Klitschko II has a rematch clause and Klitschko won. What does Glazkov do then who earned his mando.

    I actually give kudos to the IBF for sticking by their rules. They obvs would have made more money from Fury v Vlad II, but they didn't greedily deny Glakov his shot.

    lineal means nothing and is just a title imo, canelo holds the lineal belt but is terrified to face a certain someone and has never fought a miffleweight.

    I agree on your second part but as a sport we deserve better and by not complaining about stuff like this the sanctioning bodies will only get worse

    What are you on about? Why would I want an Art Gallery? In Moscow? Just to have to wash off the **** left on the side of the building from homeless vodka drinkers?

    I like my piece of paradise thank you very much, even if I am not a millionaire yet.
