    Exactly. Calzaghe held the WBO belt, the least regarded of the four major belts. Same with Eubank and Michalczewski. But they made it worthy.

I mean, WBC and WBA have usually had more great champions than IBF. Kessler is the WBA champ. Actually now it seems as if WBC has become a more "trashy" title than WBA, which previously was considered(and in large part thanks to guys like Ruiz and Valuev) the most "******" title.
        they are all corrupt.

            Says you. Then I suppose only the ring belt is the REAL one? That's unfair. Do you then say that Ali was a Mickey Mouse champion since he held the WBA but not the Ring belt??

              I didn't say the ring is the only real one.

              But it's the most legitimate.
