    None of the belts matter, any more than they did in the era when black people couldn't get a shot at one. All we have are fighters who fight the best and fighters who don't. The rep is what matters, the record.

    Kind words, but steady on, you're talking to the author of 'stop the sucking of ortiz' which was recently shortlisted for the Bridport prize.

    I'd put beltophobe on a level below, it's my Lovesong of J Alfred Prufrock to Suckings obvious counterpart, The Wasteland

    So Wbc franchise champion is same as Wba super champion? Meaning regular champ takes care of mandatorys and gets his shot at full champ in 2 years time?

    No one knows, including the WBC. They are using all of their resources just to come up with names for all the new belts, they simply don't have time to decide how it will all work.

    He has a fight now because Loma was willing to give up a belt instead of fighting him. That's ducking! WBC bailed him out by giving him a made up belt smh.

    The fight was down against the great TBA prior to the shitty WBC ruling.

    Lomachenko has faced and beaten better opponents than Haney, there’s no ducking.

    Stop acting like a groupie you ****wit.

    Yes he has a better resume, dahhhh! Haney is better and more skilled than his last two opponents. Haney was ranked as the number #1 contender for his WBC title and mandatory. Stop supporting Loma ducking and WBC helping him with dick riding!

    He’s not ducking him, you cannot as a bonafide P4P, 3 weight world champion be ducking a guy who has yet to fave anyone in the top 15 of his respective weight class.

    Keep reaching.

    Found a belt in this picture of Fury that I didn't know existed. In the middle of all his belts is the (boxrec) belt.
    So does that mean he is the champ of quoting boxer's records now?:confused:
    https://www.*****.net/2018/10/31/many-belts-boxing/


    IBF -1983
    WBA 1962
    WBC-
    1963
    WBO -1988
    IBO-1988
    IBA-1990?
    NABF-1969 (Is a part of Wbc?)
    NABO-1994
    Lineal-(1960S-70S?)
    Ring-1922

    Per World Boxing News and backlink what other belts are there not including diamond or champ in recess...

    EDIT--Link didn't work
    Why are there so many belts (an ESTIMATED 6,000) in boxing?

    https://www.*****.net › 2018/10/31 › many-belts-boxing

    or Google: how many belts are in boxing now

    Then there's the illustrious WBF
    http://www.worldboxingfederation.net/wbfchampion.htm

    The much loved WBU

    http://info.wbu-boxing.com/rankings/
    Intriguing to see Wlad at number one in the rankings below the champion Werner Kreiskott. Young David Haye at number 3 is worth keeping an eye one.

    There's probably another begun since I started this post...
