    The WBC quite rightly being panned for their new Franchise belt (lol what a name) but it's only fair to bring up a similarly hopeless organisation - i give you the WBA.

    Just check out the HW rankings (note hasn't been updated since Ruiz's upset over AJ).

    http://www.wbaboxing.com/wba-ranking

    They have 3 world champs , 4 if you include Bryan as interim.

    They have Freq Oquendo as #3

    They have Otto Watlin as # 6

    I would go on but my sides are splitting too much. You really do have to laugh.

    :risas3::risas3::risas3::risas3::risas3::risas3:

    Anyway what do you think ? Which organisation is the more comical , WBA or WBC ?

    I think the WBA have the keys for the clown mobile currently.

    Making money though, and that is their purpose. They have no other purpose.

    That's a bit harsh !

    What about preserving linearity, sportsmanship, order, fair play, and dignity in the manly art ?

    So what organization is considered the least corrupt and most respectable now? The IBF?

    Young Christopher Livingstone Eubank Jr., 2-time IBO World Champion, will set a precedent for the IBO to be the most prestigious and honored organisation.

    Have you guys ever been over to the WBA's website? It has a bunch of upcoming world championship fights, but all of the guys I've never heard of. Weird.
