    When Carl Froch beats Mikkel Kessler next month...

    and unifies the IBF/WBA 'regular' titles, he will then become the 'WBA Super World Super Middleweight' champion - the same title held by Andre Ward.

    How the hell does that work? I know belts means **** all but this is ridiculous.

    Will Froch then fight Ward for the WBA Super Duper World Super Middleweight' title?

    I don't think the WBA have thought this through...

      The winner has agreed to immediately vacate the IBF title.

          In other words substituting the 'real' IBF strap for the 'regular' WBA belt.




          At least that's how it was. As it is the winner gets to keep the IBF title after Adonis agreed to challenge for LHW glory, so the WBA mess is legit.

              That clears that up then.

              2 x super champions and a regular champion would've been too much. Without forgetting throwing an interim into the mix too...

                  Karoly Balszay used to be WBA champion in recess and Kessler is also WBC champion emeritus..........

                  Alphabet logic. You just can't beat it.

                          Kessler will be super champion when he wins, and Ward will be super duper champion.

                                  Same exact situation with Trout-canelo for the WBA super champ that Floyd already holds

                                  Its a complete mockery
