    I was wondering what you boxing fans think of the four boxing organizations. Which do you think has the most prestige and legitimacy as a boxing organization and the titles that it sanctions? Give your reasons why.

    For me it's WBC in terms of prestige. But you know, a fighter makes the title. Check out 108 division. Calderon only holds the WBO, but he's considered the best fighter there.


    In terms of legitimacy, the WBA takes the cake. It's the first organization among the four. It was known back then as the now defunked NBA.

    For me if i was a Fighter id want the WBA but hey im old school and they have been around the longest.

    And another reason i hate WBC and how they run things. But all of them are a joke these days.

    honestly i want to see them get rid of all but 3 and the main 3 that way we can still have Undisputed.

    1. WBA Keep
    2. WBC Keep
    3. IBF Keep

    The rest **** of yeah i said it sorry to the WBO,IBO etc etc.

    But if you still have 3 that way they can and will still try to Unify meaning it keeps big fights happening.

    where is "none of the above"? they are all garbage and corrupt. actually, the ibo has the best ranking system and no mandatories but adding a 5th recognized belt is too much to take but i like how they do business.

    the champ should be the one who fights the best competition and performs consistently. i prefer computerized rankings at least in large part determining rankings.

    ffs, sam peter (pictured left) has 2 wbc belts. wtf is that about? :lol:

    The WBC has been around for 47 years now, I believe it's the oldest of the major 4.

    No, that's the WBA.

    But they are ALL equally ILLEGITIMATE. I don't know where anyone gets this idea that any one of these parasitic groups is any better than any of the others! :patsch
