    We need to get rid of 2 or 3 of the 4 existing Alphabet belts.
    It be nice to have just 1 Champ (or at least 2) per division.

    Take away some of the divisions like minimumweight, Cruiserweight and maybe lightflyweight. Or maybe take away ALL weight divisions with Super or Junior on it.

        yea.. i agree with the 1st part..... i wouldnt mind seeing some weight classes eliminated but honestly weight classes like minimumweight and lightflyweight dont even get any play from us hardcore boxing fans.... them guys need to move up or something cuz i've never even seen a fight at that weight in my life

          The many different sanctioning bodies are here to stay... and so are their alphabet titles. The best we can do to fight them is to ONLY care about the lineal champ, which for the most part (but not always) is the holder of the Ring Belt.

          Now I HATE Golden Boy and I expect Ring Magazine to become biased as a result of their owning it now, but the closest we'll have to ONE champion in each weight class is to recognize the Ring Champion and pass everyone else off as the dreaded "Paper Champion".

            It'd be nice to have the RING as the one truly recognizable championship belt. Alphabet (WBA,WBC,IBF,WBO) ranking are made by corrupt people, why not the RING people, their rankings are public with explanations. Alphabelt rankings are done in close quarters with people involved handing moneys and pats amongst each other. FACT!
