    So what happen when a fighter wins the belt? Does he have to defend at the same weight he won it? Everyone can't make the same catchweight. Crooks

    this is crazy... wbc is making a clown out of themselves.. they just want to be involved in the big fights money wise.. i give more repect for the ring title now..

    this is one of the reason why boxing is dying ...

    Whats getting me about all of these belts is the fact all of us seem to agree its bull****. Now I understand it's all about money, not for the good of the sport the scumbags that run these organizations try to make it out as but isnt theres something that can be done to stop it?

    Im sure (which I know wont happen) if boxers refused to accept these belts it would end up bankrupting these organizations.

    It would be nice to see a boxer only accept The Ring belt as a legit champ's belt and not an alphabet belt.

    But, I'll keep dreaming.

    For all the people talking about The Ring, they are just as bull**** as the other orgs. Look how they won't even declare fighters they don't like in rankings, not to mention that Shane isn't even the WW champ after beating Margo *1 when he was number 2.

    Oh my god. . . . . . .


    Im honestly ****ing speechless. This is the most ****ed up thing I have ever heard.

    We have regular champions, interim champions, champions in recess, super champions, and ****ing 3 tier title eliminators,

    and now this????


    Its **** like this that boxing has faded as a sport in the US. How the **** do you explain a diamond champion????


    That sounds like a ****ing ****** award. It honestly does. I could picture some rainbow homo coalition giving out a "diamond championship"
