    Explain how the WBO is lower. Was it a rubbish belt when T Bradley took it from Pac.
    Answer this old post, where admittedly details will have altered slightly, but you will get the drift.

    ------
    Where you have written for the WBO vs limited competition.
    I just wanted to highlight some details to you.
    The SMW divisions first world champs were WBC 1988, WBA 1987, IBF 1984 & WBO 1988.
    Now for a start it is a new division so no belt has any more prestige than the other as they were all started at a similar time. So the WBO SMW title has no less prestige than the others.
    Consider also that the WBO at SMW has been involved in 4 unification bouts.
    The IBF has been involved in 2
    The WBA in 3
    WBC in 4 also
    This shows that the WBO has been as willing to make top fights at SMW as much as any other governing body.

    Now look at the list of champs in each and who they defended against and you can see that the WBO SMW title has produced the best defences overall better than all of the other govening bodies in this particular weight division so far.
    Consider how much critism Bute gets now for his IBF defences.
    Consider M Beyer defending his WBC title against 26-14-5 fighter who was coming off of a win against a 0-2-0 fighter
    Or that Mundine when defending the WBA title against a 24-13-5 fighter who was the same fighter that WBC champ Beyer was defending against above.

    People bring up Eubank who helped mould the belt that was good enough to give T Hearns a slice of history making. Out of Eubanks 18 WBO SMW title fights 14 of those fights were against fighters who were, had been or became top 10 SMWs. One was a unification and another was against the undefeated former IBF SMW champ (relinquished his title). In fact 6 of the fighters he faced had been or became world champs

    :patsch Bute is European and one of my favourite fighters.
    I dont think Steiglitz would beat Bute, I asked opinions on that potential match up. I would favour Bute. where have I said I think Steiglitz would win? I havent, but....

    Bute is European :patsch:oops:

    :patsch:-( Floyd Mayweather is one of my favourite active fighters. A true champ and winner. Is he not American now?
    You must be the one with issues, because you are talking of American fighters on a thread about two European fighters.
    :patsch Only you could be so foolish

    Dear Bailey,
    Kind Regards

    I see Bute winning this.
    Steiglitz definitely has the talent, but Bute is on another level in my honest opinion.
    Sure, he got ripped to shreds entirely by Carl Froch, but that is because Froch is a better fighter with an a-plus chin and KO power.
    But Bute is looking to bounce back and he will in this case.
    Robert is game, but nothing compared to Bute.

    Yours truly,
    Macehualli

    So a fighter who has a draw isn't unbeaten ? :lol:
    You could've gone with Bika was about to KTFO him before the stupid DQ.

    Have you seen Stieglitz's fight with Andrade's brother ? He was eating uppercut after uppercut.
