How many belts should each division have?

Four isn't enough. There should be eight world champions. And anyone with 10 or more wins becomes an interim champ by default.

One and only ever one. Sadly, with so much money involved, boxing becomes sport second and business first.

Just 1. The UFC only has one belt per division and everyone knows who The Man is in each weight class to beat. That's how it should be in boxing, too (interim champs notwithstanding.) The problem is boxing has a bunch of different governing bodies, so it's a pipe dream only, unfortunately.

this. In the jungle there's no fuking silver champ lion or interim champ lion or alphabet leader. You're either the king or you're not. Preach!!!!!!!!

agreed. Other belts are worthless. Yes indeed.

Who is gonna get rid of them? Boxing has no overall governing body, it's fragmented, just a load of companies doing business together. So basically the WBA or whatever are not exactly going to happily close their business when they don't have to. That’s the problem with boxing

one hundred million belts.

Like everyone else is saying just 1 Would create a clear path every fighter has to take to be number one no more bs mandatory fights by the IBF vs some Latvian goat farmer

I think it should just be 1 or 2 instead of 4. There’s too many paper champions with 4 belts & some champs just hold the belt hostage fighting bums for years until they’re forced to fight a legit contender or another champion. Obviously it would never happen but 1 or 2 titles would make things a lot more interesting since I’d like to think everyone in each division would want to go after the guy with the belt instead of constant ducking. One, man. Just one.

One belt per weight class would be best if things were properly run. Then the champ would be the champ without question. Champions should be made to defend that belt at least once every 6 months. All title defenses should be against a top 5 contender and the number 1 contender should get a title shot at least once a year. Meanwhile get used to 4 belts per weight class because they aren't going away. Use to be like that in the 70's and 80's when I starting watching boxing once the IBF was formed it went down hill

1............you either are the man or you are not this. In the jungle there's no fuking silver champ lion or interim champ lion or alphabet leader. You're either the king or you're not.

Only 1 this would prevent Ducking and Cherry Picking cause the Champ would have to fight the top Contender

1 world title per division Get rid of the others Who is gonna get rid of them? Boxing has no overall governing body, it's fragmented, just a load of companies doing business together. So basically the WBA or whatever are not exactly going to happily close their business when they don't have to.

Back in the day I rated the WBC and WBA belts but know WBA lost all credability with their 3 champions so keep the WBC and IBF and scrap the rest

1 world title per division Get rid of the others But elevate the old school regional titles like the NABF or BBC Fighters should go from region titles, Japan, North America, South America, euro etc.. then from those crop of regional belt holders, that should make up the contenders for the world title

I think boxing should be a more inclusive sport, and everyone should get a belt. Exactly what I was thinking 😁 Give everyone a participation belt

1............you either are the man or you are not Exactly how I feel.
