    This headline showcases an aspect of boxing I HATE!!!!!!!

    "WBA TO REDUCE NUMBER OF BANTAMWEIGHT CHAMPS FROM THREE TO TWO"

    How in the world can any sanction body allow even more than one in the first place...TWO WBA Champs?!!? Having 2 instead of 3 somehow makes it better????????? Three WBA Champs in the same weight class at the same time???????????????????????? I hate whoever is responsible for this in the first place. They did it or are doing it at 160, too...

      It's one of the more sickening things about boxing in the modern age. Multiple "world champs" in a single weight class is a complete and utter contradiction, and it denigrates the sport.

      Any real boxing fan doesn't even pay attention to who's holding what alphabet soup title. If it ain't the RING title. Or if the strap doesn't carry lineage, It should be regarded as equally worthless as a regional title.

          Well the WBA is **** with this thing, they have their regular champ, super champ and interim champ ... and then even if they unify the belts they just give the winner the super champ title and leave vacant the regular belt again ... it's just utter ****.

            Does this mean you can be an undisputed WBA champion?

                i don't know how they are going to do that ,when WBA regular titles are automatically vacated and upgraded to WBA super titles in an unification fight. on top of that WBA can raise boxers to super champions without unification (cotto, sturm).
                well we can thank lennox lewis who proposed that idea haha!
