    War of the belts

    looks like its going to be every sanctioning body against PBC Belts . I don't think it will affect fights being made . The sanctioning bodies can't control the boxing managers and promoters from figths being made. this might be a major blow to the belt sanctioning bodies

    They can refuse to sanction all PBC fights and they can strip anyone who fights on PBC broadcasts. In the end, this can be a good thing after all. No recognized titles will be hidden behind the Haymon Protection Agency's walls anymore.

      in the end its up to the fighters to back this move if they do sanctioning bodies are in deep crap I could the see the sanctioning bodies ruling the lower weights but anything above 126 they lose control

        I doubt they will care to be stripped. Haymon has the fighters so bodies arent dumb.

        Anyway belts are irrelevant these days

          The only fighters who will back this move will be those who are signed to Haymon. If PBC bouts are no longer sanctioned events, existing title holders and ranked fighters may refuse to partake. Not like there is much of a chance of them being invited in the first place. Haymon figures he has little to lose as he has few title holders under contract. It will be interesting to see if Lee's fight is sanctioned next Saturday after this news has come to light.

            They are so irrelevant that Haymon has decided to create his own. Yeah, you keep telling yourself that.

              They suck anyway, especially the WBA with their 80 belts.

              All of them suck with all their minor belts to try and squeeze out money wherever they can.

              The only thing I don't like about the PBC belt is they're gonna be claiming them as world champions while doing nothing but inbreeding, but that's the only thing

                If PBC has its own belt, it would be the first major sign that the venture aims to freeze out anyone who isn't signed to Haymon. And obviously that would be a terrible thing.
