A few other posters touched on this in another thread:
WBA is about to overtake the IBO as the P4P #1 joke organization. (In reference to the WBA possibly making Amir Khan a 'Super-Champ'.
Explain why the IBO is a joke please?
They are the only organization that rates all fighters at any given weight and they do it in a computerized fashion that removes a great deal of the human bias that ruins the rankings of the 4 major bodies.
No, the IBO isn't as significant, but there is nothing about the way they crown their champions and conduct their business that makes them a joke.
When was the last time the IBO stripped someone, invented a "super title", or a "silver title"?
whats so terrible about the ibo? they have the two highest ranked contenders fight for their belt and anyone that wins it has to defend against top opposition for the sake of being stripped. no sanctioning fees, computerized rankings...u name it
the WBC is a joke with their silver/diamond belt and now the corruptness of the WBA and their 3-4 champs per divisions are right up there. the IBF hardly ever care for unifications either
The IBO is a joke. They hand out their "titles" to journeyman level fighters. Their Middleweight champion is Peter Manfredo, their Welterweight champion is Lovemore Ndou. The list goes on. The only two champions they have that are right are Wladimir Klitschko and Jean Pascal. I would say that the WBA has passed the IBO as the worst orginzation but I have never considered the IBO as legitimate anyways.
The IBO tries to do things properly. Hopefully it will continue to rise and won't compromise on the way.
The WBA can **** right off with its ludicrous Super Champ, Regular Champ, Interim Champ bull****. I lost all respect for the WBC when it sanctioned a fight between two welterweights, at 150lbs, for its light-middleweight belt.
WBA is the worst by far. They have like 2 or 3 champions for 1 division lol. What another organisation would call their divison champion, WBA will add Super to make it seem like it is something extraordinary when in fact it is a championship belt like every other organisation.
Ring!
But since it is not inlcuded technically... It is IBF then. Used to be WBC & WBA about 2 decades ago, but now both orgs are joke.
overall it is IBF!
I do like the IBF, as I stated earlier. But I guess I just prefer the smaller organisation, the underdog etc (the IBO).

Come on dude, WBC have all this Silver and Diamond crap going on!
I respect the IBF more than the WBC. I like some things the IBF do e.g. that 4-man eliminator they're gonna do to find Wlad's next mandatory at Heavyweight... It's a good idea and it gets the best contenders fighting each other. That way the winner of their little tourney would actually deserve a title shot.
WBC is a joke IMO.
yeah, wbc got the history though.
currentley wbc are not the best, but if were looking at all time, then wbc is defo up there
wbc if i had to pick

hell no man everything doesnt have to do with manny and floyd.....but they boost fighters rankings signed with goldenboy all the time
The Ring is not incorruptible. There was a major scandal in the 70s when they were caught fixing their ratings in favour of Don King fighters.
They're all as bad as each other. It's sad that the IBO is now also being pushed as a serious belt. Won't be long before we have a dozen champions in each division.
I hate to say admit it but I agree with Hitman. Panda raises good points too.
The IBO are legitimate and are not corrupt.
They've had legit champs over the last few years including Pacquiao, Hatton, Wlad and Pascal.
I think they are under-rated and should be considered as equals to the other 4 organisations.
LOL, any reasonable person would :luvbed:
RING
Should be one
wheres the none of the above option
I knew that if Ring was on the list that everybody would vote for it. The purpose of this thread/pole is to determine what organisation is the best out of the above 5.
It's obvious that the Ring title/lineal title is the only title that matters in each division. But which organisation out of the others is what I'm trying to determine.
I voted IBO.
