    WBC is the most attractive belt to have in your possession, but many times the WBC champion is not the best in the division.

    Just off the top of my head, here's a list of recent fighters who only held the WBO version but were all Ring Magazine champions-
    Chris Eubank
    Marco Antonio Barrera
    Naseem Hamed
    Dariusz Michalczewski
    Joe Calzaghe

    -all they held were WBO titles, yet they were awarded Ring Mag belts.


    So really, the federations are just alphabet crap!

          Don't the Ring Mag champions (for each division) each year get a Ring belt?

            WBC suck big time! The president is a mexicain and recently in the Castillo-Corrales fight he said that the referee (Weeks) gave too much chances to Corrales and wasn't fair to Castillo (who is mexicain too!). Apparently That ******* wants to see fighter get kill in the ring.

            The only good news from this, Castillo-Corrales 2.

            But aside from that WBC is bull**** just like the other!

              All the belts are ****.

              The Ring Belt is the only one we should recognize.

                you do realize that what chico coralles was doing wasnt fair.
                he got dropped and was given far to much time to recover, it wasnt fair to castillo who was winning that fight because it was just enough time for coralles to recover and land a bomb, a punch that would have never come about had corrales only had the appropriate 10 seconds to recover.

                    Yeah. Seriously G-Dub, he was saying that the mouthpiece spitting was bull****, and something should be done about it, because Castillo would have won had Coralles not done that.

                      Weeks did the right thing, let it slide the first time, deduct a point the second and would have disqualified him the third.

                      That was a 10-6 round for Castillo! That's fair. If Castillo stay calm and continue to box, he wins easily but he goes out and gamble with a puncher.

                      Jose Sulaiman from the WBC is simply an *******, this fight needs a rematch but don't go out and disrespect a referee who did is job!
