    Reg/interim champion elevated to super champion...wrong for boxing

    This is nothing new...however they should have had Garcia vs Khan. Also this is equivalent to my other pet peevs like a "regular/interim" champion being elevated to super champion when the super championed vacates the title. As is the case w/ Floyd vacating his Super WBA title, and Keith Thurman being elevated to Super champion? GTFOH! Thurman should be fighting someone else for that title, titles should be won in the ring. This is why this crappy "regular/interim" title is bad for boxing, Thurman in all actualality is the #1 contender therefore he should be fighting #2 contender. This is improper. Atleast Garcia is fighting for the title in the ring.

    It's all a money grab. More belts mean more sanctioning fee's. It's all B.S. Anyone can be a "champ" nowadays. This is why I don't put too much stock in titles. Half the time they're worthless or made up.
