NSB Lets make a New Definition

[Left2body]

Hey guys, I'm gonna start being much more careful with the words I use. I'm tired of all these multiple weight "Champions" and the such. The word Champ is used too many times. The conotation I had always associated with Champion was "The Man" i.e.

Mike Tyson was The Heavy Weight Champ
Hatton is The jrWW Champ

Cotto is a WW Titlist
etc.....etc....

To me the word Titlist today is similar to using the word Contender back in the old days.

Champ - The undisputed Man at a Weight usually same as Ring Magazine Belt Holder

Titilist - Everyone else that has an alphabet belt.
etc etc........

I recently just started doing that.

I actually prefer contender to titlist, but yep, I've campaigned for this for a long time. I'm not saying the ring magazine methods are perfect, but we should at least support them by recognising the Champ rather than a titlist, who in reality is actually a contender

Classic example - Calzaghe is 168 champ, Kessler is the no.1 contender
Floyd was champ at 130 135 and 147, but not 140 or 154.
