    The last thing boxing needs is another belt. I havent checked out the IBO ranking system but if its cool as some posters here say then hopefully the other organizations will catch on
    and use a similar system.

      the fighter makes the belt,being a world champion doesnt mean anything these days
      look at guys like erdei and balszay-world champions but it doesnt mean they are world class,far from it actually

Sometimes I do so on an optimistic premise (i.e. someone really deserving of being a champion), whilst other times I don't want to even acknowledge the existence of those things because of how silly they conduct business (i.e. Bradley having to drop a title after winning it).

        I'll leave it at that. :conf3:
        A mish-mash of sources forms your opinion as to whether a fighter is undisputed champion or not?

        I guess that if enough people tells you that the pope is really a protestant you believe it.

          What can I say? I just form my own opinion on it, based on a variety of things. That's all I can tell you.

          Hey, come on - no need to twist things to such a silly level. Besides, I'm not even religious. :wnk1: What happened to agreeing to disagreeing? We're obviously going nowhere on this.

            It was you yourself who elaborated on your criteria. I pointed out the sillyness and non-uniformity of those criterias.

            This being NSB you are of course allowed to use whatever criterias you want to.
