    People calling themselves boxingfans campaigning NOT to have a unification. NSB at an all-time low.

      Klitschko wants the belt. Ward has shown absolutely zero interest in fighting Stieglitz/Abraham.

        The arguement here is that Klit is already recognized as the best... so let there be one belt floating around so it can be defended can feel like a HW champion.

        And yet you hear people complaining about paper belts all the time and how these guys across the narrow seas are holding a belt hostage and so forth.

        People nanners for B-Hop to unify.... I'd say undisputed but evidently the WBO belt is irrelevant for some reason... but the belt with 4 champions is super relevant...maybe interim relevant

        *obligatory Dan Rafael joke*

          You know Hougigo. It's really sickening. They want a belt that everybody not named Klitschko can fight for.

            What about Felix Sturm? Golovkin has been chasing him for the longest time but he stays nice and safe in Germany instead making big money with his belt.

            Why shouldn't other fighters from other regions be allowed to do the same?

            Don't get me wrong, I prefer to see belts unified too. But either you force everyone to unify or you let everyone milk the belts when they can. Don't be selective about who you criticize for this.

              Why would Kovalev fans refuse to admit Ward is the best at 168? If anything there argument is Ward has already cleaned out 168 so now he should move up and fight Kovalev or Stevenson at 175.

                Wlad should be allowed to unify the belts just because other champs in other divisions hold belts hostage that doesn't make it right. It's somthing thats wrong with boxing its not a legit reason for someone else to do it.

                  You endorse non-unifications with your stance in this thread dude. I honestly had a higher opinion on you.

                  As for Sturm, well he has received a lot of heated for ducking GGG. No question about that.

                    Fine, but apply it across the board to everyone then. Don't stick up for what's right only when it affects a Klitschko.
