    Comments Thread For: Labinot Xhoxhaj wins EBU heavyweight title - but the belt doesn't mean much anymore

    Well done Labinot Xhoxhaj, European champion. We'll always remember your name even if we never correctly spell it or, god forbid, pronounce it.

      Sad, but true. With all the phony "world" titles available, the top talent in Europe can make more money gunning for these ridiculous alphabet belts instead of the once prestigious European title.

        I've been saying it for quite some time now & it is indeed a travesty . Maybe the EBU could sanction Johnny Fisher Vs Dave Allen as a final eliminator which could well draw some better names such as vianello, Wardley, Wallin & Itauma into the equation!

          This is the last article I'm reading on boxing scene. Absolutely terrible penmanship since it was sold. Peace.

            The Labinot Xhoxhai was the pride of the Albanian auto industry under the Communists in the early 1960s. Sporting a 12 horsepower 2-stroke twin cylinder powerplant, the Xhoxhai had an impressive 0-60 time of just under 5 minutes. Capable of carrying two passengers (plus 5 chickens and a goat on the roof), the Xhoxhai was highly sought after despite its cost of twice the average annual Albanian salary of the time.
