The WBC has also created a "Silver" world title in 2010. Justin Savi was the first to win it on April 16, 2010, fighting against Cyril Thomas in France. The Silver title was created as a replacement to the interim title.[1] But unlike its predecessor, a boxer holding the Silver title cannot inherit the full title vacated by the champion. The WBC continues to recognize Interim and Silver champions, as well as Interim Silver champions.[2]
