    What is your opinion? I have a particular disdain for the WBA and their multiple-level champions in each division, an obvious attempt to create more title fights and therefore more money.

    I like that the IBF actually enforces mandatories, even if some of those fighters are a bit ****.

    I agree. Problem why the mandatory are sometimes a bit s*** is that the champ gets a 75/25 split, so you have accept being a significant B side.

    Since Kell Brook's been champion Bundu, Khan, Bradley, Porter, Sadam Ali and Alexander all turned down the chance to fight in a final eliminator to fight for the title, and now Brook's fighting Chaves, the final eliminator that will probably actually happen as 25 % v Brook is good pay day for these guys is Kevin Bizier v Fredrick Lawson.

    However at the same time, I think it's good for getting opportunities for guys who aren't with Haymon/ Golden Boy/ Top Rank and not featured on American TV (such as Brook himself), then you can build your profile with voluntaries.

    WBO actually stripped Floyd of the belt he won off Pacquiao so that was impressive by them.

    I'd say IBF followed by WBO. WBC and WBA can both be infuriating with their decisions

    Eh..

    I think it's safe to say that WBA and WBC are by far the most corrupt, two totally trash organizations.

    WBO and IBF are a bit less corrupt but neither are great either.

    IBF and WBO. Certainly not great, but actually enforce mandatories and I haven't seen magic appearances in their ranks for years. But the IBF has that sour non stripping of juicers aftertaste

    Clearly the IBF. WBA are a joke.
