Comments Thread For: WBA To Lock Horns With EBU as New Titles Will Emerge

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The WBA will introduce its European title this Sunday in Sunderland, England, when Willie Casey takes on Jason Booth in a super bantamweight fight. Not everything is working yet but the WBA are planning to have a European title that is strictly for Europeans, which means they will look horns with the EBU. [Click Here To Read More]

the WBA needs to eliminate a few regional belts like the international & intercontinental belts because it makes rankings confusing. what they use to do was much more effective when they had 4 regional titles.

the WBA regular champion is really just the legit #1 contender. if they went back to the system of 4 regional belts it would give boxing fans a better understanding of the organizations ranking system. the 4 regional titles would determine spots in the top 10 & the 1 slot is the regular champion\#1 contender. the 4 regional belt holders should be ranked in the top 10 & at some point should have to face each other. in a perfect world they would be rank 2-5 say but obviously europe & NA will have much better competition so thats why they get better rankings if you hold a belt.


there is the NABA(canada,USA, mexico), Federlatin(central & south america), PABA(asia & south pacific countries of australia, new zealand,etc.), European( all of europe). the guys who hold these titles should be in the top 10 but i think to be the regular champion\#1 contender you should have beaten the champions of the other regions or at least 3 of the top 10. if you are the regular champion you should not be defending some paper title, you should be fighting the super champion next or be stripped of your ranking. the #1 guy actually shouldn't even be called a champion. he should have at least held his regions title then beat 3 top 10 guys to become the mandatory. it's too bad it's all corrupt & about money now.

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

There will come a time where blokes in pub car parks are fighting for some form of WBA title.

Great idea, now they need to have a WBA EU Super champ and the WBA EU regular champ, along with the interim WBA EU belts for fringe european fighters to then challenge for the full WBA EU title.
