    When Teófimo López (IBF lightweight title) defeats Vasiliy Lomachenko (WBA and WBO lightweight title) and then holds the WBC lightweight title belt; then it's an IRREGULAR belt :D

    The holder of the WBC lightweight title belt was and remains Devin Haney.

    For me in general it basically means it's a "regular" WBA sanctioned fight, with no title on the line.

    About as much as a degree in communications from an unaccredited university with barely passing grades.

    Regular titles are by fiat of the WBA which means there is always a Super Champion.

    WBC has gold and silver titles.

    And then their custom POS belts like Franchise and Aztec, etc..

    This is as far as the meeting ever reached when the decision was taken to create these trinkets.

    Tank should try to unify his WBA regular title with the WBC gold title. That is, of course, assuming Mayweather lets him take that much risk.

    I take the WBA kiddie belt more seriously because they actually list the champions for it here...

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_current_world_boxing_champions

    edit: I guess they list the WBC interim champions as well now.

    It means that these parasitic alphabet organizations are looking for a new source of revenue.
