    Why is Spence and Garcia fighting for a Wbc belt? Spence only has the Ibf. Shawn Porter has the Wbc belt which he won by beating Danny Garcia.

    Wbc Porter
    Wba super Thurman
    WBA regular Pacquiao
    Spence IBF
    Crawford Wbo
    Is the diamond belt rated higher than the Wbc regular.

    James Toney used to say WBC stands for "We be Crooks"

    The IBO is more prestigious than the WBC at this point.

    I heard rumours of a WBA Gold belt being made.
    But the Diamond belt is old news. They have been throwing that around for years now.
