    why is Tyson Fury still listed as Ring Champ?

    He hasnt fought since nov 2015 and is retired....How is he still Ring champ?



    Here are the seven situations in which a champion can lose his belt:
    The Champion loses a fight in the weight class in which he is champion.
    The Champion moves to another weight class (for more than one fight).
    The Champion does not schedule a fight in any weight class for 18 months.
    The Champion does not schedule a fight at his championship weight for 18 months (even if he fights at another weight).
    The Champion does not schedule a fight with a Top-5 contender from any weight class for two years.
    The Champion retires.
    The Champion tests positive for a performance-enhancing substance.

      He doesn't have it anymore, they're just slacking on the updates.

      Wilder vs. Joshua will determine the new Ring Champ.

          If he was black you would be petitioning to allow him to keep his belts.

              Are you trying to call Larry a racist? He is the most upstanding gentleman I know and it would behoove you to give him the respect he deserves.
