    I don't know but the WBA is bondage, as you get tied up in their **** mandatory defences.

    The british is the best IMO. The European title is little more than a bauble these days. You don't have to fight the best in Europe to win it, hell you don't even have to fight one of the top 5 best a lot of the time. It sounds better than what its become. The British title you usually have to beat the best in Britain to win it, and it retains its proud history.

    Decent sex but woken up far too early in the morning by 1 of her 5 kids asking you if you are their "new Daddy".

    Great post. :good

    For me the boxer makes the title. Audley Harrison was European champ when there were several heavyweights in Britain that would beat him. And as Slappy showed in his post, there are plenty of European champions what would beat British champions.

    In general, European title is the best.
