Well, to begin with, The Ring title is not the same as the lineal title. The lineal champ is not always The Ring champ.
You lose the belt three ways: you lose a title fight, you retire, or you relinquish/move up. For example, The Ring editor wrote an article in which he explained that Joe Calzaghe had e-mailed him after the Hopkins fight, and told him he could no longer make 168 and was vacating the title. Israel Vazquez did something similar with the super bantamweight title.
