    ...WBC, WBA, WBO and The Ring belt! Unofficially Calzaghe also owns the IBF and IBO.

    What does it matter? Calzaghe is The World Super Middleweight Champion; Kessler the generally considered #1 contender; that is all you need....

    Alphabet crap be it The Ring, WBA, WBC or XYZ means nothing.

    Kessler is 'the man' and Calzaghe is 'the best'. Historically Kessler is the first man at 168 to start lineage.

    There is no such thing as lineage in boxing no more.

    The last lineage champ was a Super Middleweight, but certainly not Kessler, it was Bruno Girard. Girard gave his claim up when he moved to 175lbs and fought Lou Del Valle...

    What is all this alphabet crap rubbish you talk about? Calzaghe and Jeff Lacy were the #1 and #2 contenders to the championship Bruno Girard left vacant when he moved up to 175lbs. Calzaghe beat Lacy, thus won the vacant Super Middleweight Championship of the World...

    Historically lineage lay in the WBC and WBA so yes it does still exist. However lineage is losing its importance. People don't care much about who the man is, they care about who the best is.

    168 has only ever had ONE champ at that is Kessler.
