The lineal chain has been broken and reset a bunch of times but the title is largely bogus because it can be abused and used as a way to duck tougher fighters. Foreman gave up the WBA and IBF belts and then chose to fight paper contender Crawford Grimsley. Fury ate and drugged his his way to 400 pounds and then defended his lineal title against a club fighter who was a natural cruiserweight.
