I don’t even consider undisputed an accomplishment in women’s boxing. The divisions are so shallow.

I think women’s boxing could really benefit from less titles and less weight classes. The original 8 with one title per weight class would really help the sport grow IMO.

UFC were smart enough to realise that which is why they only have 3 divisions, instead of the 8 the men have. It ensures quality control.

I agree, undisputed is not as big an accomplishment when the field is so shallow.

But at least there is only one world champion in those 5 divisions for the women. That should create some lineages going forward which is a good thing.

Yeah I’d like to see them create a singular undisputed championship and ditch the ABC versions. Obviously will never happen but I think it would really help women’s boxing.

If they give out a Ring belt to those 5 unified women's champions that could be a way to do it.

The thing I hate is that usually when someone unifies all the belts they move to another division and never defend. So the belts get broken up again.

Good idea. You’d need the stars like Shields, Taylor etc to essentially bin the ABC belts and say we’re just defending this belt now.

I’m not really a fan of women’s boxing, mainly because I think the standard of fights are generally not TV worthy but it’s obviously here to stay and I can get behind fights like Shields-Marshall, Taylor-Persoon, Baumgardner-Mayer etc were it’s two girls who’s skill levels we respect. All those fighters are championship level however you get far too many girls holding belts who couldn’t win a national amateur title. Women’s boxing needs to find a way to ensure the standard of a champion is that of a Shields or a Jonas or a Cameron etc.
