    All of the WBA Champions look very solid. Kessler has a WBA defense coming up soon.

    HW Nicolay Valuev
    CW Guillermo Jones
    LW Gabriel Campillo
    SMW Mikkel Kessler
    MW Felix Sturm
    JRMW Daniel Santos
    ETC

    No I am pissed off that the WBA is not getting any respect. And you know why it is because Amir Khan just won the Title and David Haye is getting a title shot. I have noticed many people despise British fighters on this site, so a lot of people are trying their very best to discredit the legitimacy of the WBA. That is what we have going on here.

    Terry please thing logically. You say that the WBA is legit but it is the worst boxing organization, even worst than the WBO. You know why boxing suffers? It's because of the politics of boxing organization like the WBA. You say that the Super-Champion, Interim and Champion in recess is original, but **** no it is really bad for boxing. Every sport has just one champion, but in boxing imagine - you can have 7 champions in one ****ing category! It's ridiculous! You think it make sense? How do you wanna know who is the best if there is 7 champions and nobody fights each other :huh

    The WBC, WBA, IBF and WBO are all major titles. WBO is the weakest but still a major title.

    Chuck the ring title in and that's the only ones I really pay attention to - Even though our Aussie boxers and a couple of others are talking like the IBO are also "prestigious"

    WBA have "super champions" so they can double dip on sanctioning fees in certain divisions. They're as disgraceful as any other alphabet gang I guess.

    WBA has an opportunity to clean up its image, but it keeps falling back on its old ways, namely the recycling of Valuev and Ruiz at HW.

    The WBA chaos in the HW division hasn't exactly served the WBA's credibility. The entire Chagaev - Valuev situation has been a total farce.

    Don King has the WBA by the balls, obviously. They do what he wants.

    how about the WBA # 1 ranked super middle weight in the world
    introducing
    Gusmyl Perdomo
    16-2
    his last 3 fights are a loss, a win against a guy 37-7 who wasnt ranked in the box rec 100
    and his last fight against a guy with 14 wins 17 losses....right after that, he is rewarded with Kessler.....

    At least the WBO doesn't have 2 champions in the same weight class, the Super Champion thing isn't great for fans but it is for unified beltholders.
    The Super Champion allowed William Joppy and Bernard Hopkins to both be WBA champion at the same time.

    WBA is crap bc they are run by DKP.

    Just check it, most of their champs are DKP fighters, and quite inactive.

    DKP fighters are also undeservingly ranked very high always at the WBA.
