silver titles???! wtf?? its already bad enough having 5 Belts in each division now they want to change the Interim Champs for the WBC Interim championship to Silver Titles?? :/

I've got a better idea. Let's replace 'interim blah blah blah' with the name of mandatory challenger. That's how it was in boxing and that's how it's got to be in this day and era. Am I completely wrong?

Seriously though, is this WBC's idea? I thought this crap was coming from the WBA, the most insane sanctioning body today. Just take a look at what they've been doing recently. It's looking like a hardware shop that is about to close for good, saying "Every Belt Must Go!"

This is one of the more ridiculous things I've heard in a while. Let's also rename the regular WBC belt Gold or Platinum while we're at it.

Who cares about interim titles? These belts all suck.

Interim titles should be done away with period....no need for them. WBC is just trying to milk more money outta boxers.

[MJ406]

yet they felt the need to make a "catchweight title" ... lol yeah okay.

We have Diamond and Silver belts. Should we expect Platinum and Bronze belts anytime soon?
