        One would think that would be better suited in a boxing museum

          The owner can still lend it out to a boxing museum, under a tight security.

              Sadly, that was the first version of the WBC Green belts and wasn't produced till 1976 NOT 1974!! There is also an identical one in another guys collection and they are generic so odds are it could have been an extra that Bundini asked the WBC for since he was a hoarder, had it been Ali's Ring belt, would make sense for that number...

                    Joke's on the buyer.... if you throw a birthday party in Mexico, Suiliman will give out WBC belts to everyone who attends for a couple hundred bucks. Legit world titles.
