    The IBF has to my recollection pulled the most obviusly off strippings of late ( the JMM Chris John debacle springs to mind ) but to be honest if you look hard enough they are all probably equally bad

    The WBO

    Whenever Frank Warren has an undefeated prospect they automatically become #3 in the rankings, and a feather fisted Eurobum becomes #2

    All before they have even proved that they are the best in their own city

    The IBF took moey to bump guys up the rankings.

    The WBA invented super champions in a blatant attempt to gouge even more money out of the sport

    The WBC took a belt back off a guy who won it and tried to pretend the whole thing never happened, and got sued and almost went bankrupt.

    The WBO repeatedly bumped a dead man up their rankings.

    It's tough to say. I dislike the WBA the most.

    Basically Chavez jr. didnt make the weight for his fight and Jose Suliman blocked the scale so you couldnt see his weight and allowed Chavez jr. to fight over weight.

    They're all so corrupt in ways we don't even notice. Hard to deliniate which ones are more corrupt than the others.

    It seems though that fighters are caring less about the belts slowly but surely, and trying to make good fights...Not always, but much more than before. Any1 feel this way as well?

    The IBF right now....being as the ref can count as long as he wants to in order to save a fighter from defeat. Stupid Jamaican was probably stoned...I hear herb does something to time and it showed
