Can someone help me understand this please.

A super champ is when someone holds another title with the WBA title. So yes, there are 2 WBA super champs at 154, it doesnt get any worse then that but cotto only held the super title yuri only had the super title and no other belt lol. yeah its confusing and bs. just to justify 2 sanctioning fees.

you been here for almost a decade and claim to box and ask this question??you know damn well Cotto was upgraded to "super"champ and Trout won the "regular" title..more titles=more sanctioning fees I do not keep track of all the paper title going around. Especially in the past few years it has become outrageous. I only follow the official 3 main bodies sometimes WBO and the RING title which is usually giving to the lineal champion whether or not he has any of the other belts or not. So to me the ring is the only one that really counts. But as much as I watched fights I never really paid attention to super world or the world versions of the WBA. Just like I never paid attention until now about all the bogus WBC titles in one division. I know its all about fees. Its just garbage a not only a fighter calls themselves champions when there are like 3 other belts in the division around the waist of other guys. But now you have versions of the same belt in the same division.

Ok now after reviewing the history. Fernando vargas and Oscar delahoya were the first to fight for the WBA Super World. And the WBA world goes back to 1962. Which is the official title in the division.

Floyd hasn't fought in the division for too long a time to still be a titlist and Cotto never shoulda been a "super" champ by WBA's own rules not that any of this crap even matters next week Floyd will have the WBA and WBC belts, which is what counts

only WBA champs who unify titles are supposed to get "super" status but the WBA just gives it out for no reason other than fees Floyd's 18 months outta the JMW division going into the Alvarez fight FWIW, don't really consider him a titlist at the weight anymore WBA's status at JMW is cloudy, will buy Alvarez as their titlist for now if you wanna call him "super" champ for having 2 belts, whatever Canelo is listed as the "unified champ"..Floyd is listed as the "super champ"

dude, you've never heard of a super-champion. c'mon son :dance::dance:

They are still not as bad as the WBC with their diamond, emeritus, interim, regular, silver in one division. Its confusing and sad. Such greed.

2010 Cotto was the WBA super champ. Trout was the regular WBA champ. Right now, Floyd is the super champ and Canelo is the regular champ.
