    I have most divisions championless. None are separating themselves. We have divisions with 3 or 4 names at the top, but none is a clear Champ. After number #4, almost all the fighters are nonentity.

      The problem is that an up and coming or veteran that is trying to get to the top will go for these titles. They will convince these fighters that it is the gateway to the real title or top contender. WBC is doing the worst thing on that franchise champ who they cannot enforce mandatories.

        I rank the WBC the biggest crooks in boxing.

          The only one I see doing that is Jake Donovan.
          For years this website was plastered with WBA advertisements, presumably with a financial agreement underpinning them...

              Which divisions do you feel have the real champions that you are willing to recognise?

              Is it 126, no, 130, no, 135, no, 130, no 140?

              Only kidding on that last bit. Just a bitta bants you know.

                Just set up the court date and we'll see who is the true unified bronze/ interim regular WBA heavy weight champion in recess.

                You don't want any of this litigating and arbitration Fres.

                  You got it all wrong with Davis. How many WBA regular belts has he fought for? One. GGG, your favorite fighter, made a career out of it. The next one is to force Taylor if he beats Ramirez, not for all the belts either, but they have a score to settle. Keep watching.

                  All belts are crooked. Floyd or Haymon can make one phone call and all the crooked orgs would rate Davis at the top of their ranking in any division. He's really indifferent to these belts.

                    The smaller ones. People like Ioka, Gonzalez, Estrada, etc. If pushed, I could choose a champion from those divisions, or regard all of them champs, not because of belts. The rest isn't clear to me.

                      Davis was given a vacant Super title fight (against a fighter coming from a loss, from another division) despite the WBA already having a champion at 130. Did you forget about that? Machado was literally downgraded by email so they could crown Davis instead

                      He is also about to fight for his 2nd regular WBA title. He is well looked after by the WBA. If he is indifferent why is there such an obvious pattern of affiliation here?

                      Not sure why you brought up Golovkin, far from my favourite fighter, but has only held 1 regular title in his career. The lineage of the title ended when Canelo sat on it for years without defending it. He isn’t relevant at all here
