    MOST THE FIGHTERS IN THAT GRAPHIC BY ELVEIL DON'T DESERVE TITLE BELTS. Wow, you got Hopkins and Corrales on there, but they both happen to hold more than the WBO in their respective weight classes. JOE CALZAGHE HAS THE WBO BELT FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! The WBO is not legit!!!!!!

      You are seriously seriously f***ing ****** and you did not read my last post. You say Calzaghe sucks, but he is the long reigning Ring Magazine champ. Just like Freitas was the WBO and long reinging Ring Magazine Champ.

        Freitas was a fraud. Most of us realize that now. Calzaghe is a fraud as well. We'll let Lacy handle that exposure.

          Freitas is a fraud yet he was the long reigning Ring Magazine Champ. And Calazaghe is a fraud yet he is the long reigning Ring Magazine Champ. I think you need to reconsider your assesments.

          Also Judah holds the WBA WBC and IBF but if Margarito fought Judah I for one would pick Margarito to win and I know alot of other people would as well.

            When the RING magazine Super-Middleweight title was vacant in 1991, the winner of the Eubank-Watson clash (a classic) for the vacant WBO Super-Middleweight title was going to get the RING title too. And they did, Eubank held the RING title in 91 and 92, and he 'only' held the WBO belt. Previous to that, Tommy Hearns was the RING champ at 168 and he 'only' held the WBO belt at 168 (before vacating it).

              It really gets sticky in some of the lower weight classes, but the is only ONE title worth having. LINEAR. Being the man that beat the man. The rest is just bull**** and politics. WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO etc. could all name me as champion. SO WHAT? I never beat anybody. It doesn't amount to a pints worth of warm piss. Too many different belts and too many weight classes. All it does is dilute the sport and cause confusion and apathy. Two things this sport definetly doesn't need.

                Calzaghe has never been RING mag champion by the way, the title has been vacant for 5 years. Calzaghe is rated number one by RING, but the title is still vacant, he's not been RING champ. But he's quite obviously the best SMW in the world and has beaten five former world champions (two of which held the WBC, one of which held the WBA, one of which held the IBF, and the other held the WBO), just like Eubank did.. Eubank beat fighters who were former world champions of all four versions, infact he beat the IBF champ Lindell Holmes but Holmes' title wasn't on the line only Eubank's, and he beat WBC champ Benn but was robbed when it was a scored a draw. Sorry, I always find a way to throw Eubank's name in, I'm obsessed

                  Calzaghe doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Benn or Eubank, but he is a good fighter.
