WTF?!?!? Murray is fighting for the WBA belt....which is vacant!

[Weebler I]

Well I'm a fan clearly, and I don't really recognize that 8th as legit. But then I don't think DLH's 6th is legit either.

Which 8th? the JWW title or the JMW title?

[US Dirk Killer]

Nobody recognizes the 154 title. Those who do are the same ones who recognize Canelo's title... SAME TITLE!

[HeroBando]

The IBO/Ring or the 154 belt?

"154", that was a joke.

True, Canelo won it in an even worse fashion, but at least he defended it at 154, though mostly against welters and jwws

Mares' 122 title is also sketchy, won it at 120 vs #10 ranked 118er, made a single defense against another 118er who immediately went back down.

Mares's was. He's small as hell

It's not a 154 belt of course, it's a JMW belt.

I think it's 10, not 5, but right otherwise

Well funnily enough, the WBA are vague on this point too. Read the rules, it's really a sham. I'll quote the exact wording for you (so you can have a good laugh):

Similarly the Association will grant Super Belts to those champions that make 5 or 10 (if it was the case) successful defenses of his title. These Super Belts will be named after those champions that have been able to defend their title 5 or 10 times.

Yet, they clear their tracks later in their regulations by saying these things:

In exceptional circumstances, the Championships Committee and the President may designate a Champion (other than an Interim Champion) as a Super Champion. The President and Committee may establish criteria for a Super Championship.

If the Committee and President designate a Super Champion at the time the boxer is a World Champion, they may also suspend the provisions of Rule C.27

Pages 10/11: 18. 'Super Champion Status'

C.27 on that document is basically how they strip, vacate the titles, one of them being 'breaking the rules'. Basically, they can do whatever they want, and these rules are null and void given the President and the 'Committee' agree on it. It's a sham, but the WBC are worse.

Lmao. Nice find, I always thought it was 10 but they'd cut corners by including interim. WBA are the rock bottom

That's all that needs to be said.
