    I think we can all concur the WBA is a Joke, but of the other ones I think the WBC is also losing credibility with their "Daimond, Silver, Emeritus" and other bull****..


    Me thinks the only one right now that is somewhat credible and the most legit is the IBF....:deal


    What say you??..

    The Ring's.

    All the alphabet organisations are as bad as each other, so I can't take any of them seriously.

    The only real title that matters is number 1. Whoever is the number 1 in the division. For the vast majority the lineage of the ring (at the point it ceased publication all it's champs were lineal, when it restarted it awarded jones instead of dm) champ has been the number 1 but even that has deviations (e.g. Briggs was never, ever, seen as the number 1 in the division)

    Ring is what i go by, out of alphabet belts i used to go by WBC but they are pathetic these days, i'd have to say IBF is head and shoulders above all other alphebet belts these days...

    The IBF has a pretty good reputation...comparatively speaking... as they don't seem to play the games that have become so commonplace with the other organizations.

    The Ring. Even they have questionable moments such as the P4P Section. After beating Mosley Mayweather was elevated to nr 1 P4P. Manny Pacquiaos victory over Margarito but him at nr 1... :rofl **** like that CRACKS ME UP

    The Linear title is the ONLY title that matters. All others are no more relevant than doorstops or paper weights...

    They have a bad mandatory system but its nothing compared to all the other bs the other titles deliver daily.
    Pavlik talks about moving to 168. Gets elevated to NR 1 by the WBC.
    Alexander talks about moving to 147. Same **** but only nr 2.
    Bradley gets stripped because the WBC "though Bradley was moving up in weight with all the Pacquiao and Maywaether talk..."
    WBA heavyweight belt is vacant even though Wladimir just won it, paid sanctioning fees and didnt vacate it...
