          The WBSS plans to work at 118 & 122 the coming season. Rigondeaux will definitely compete there. Him ,Rungvisai and Chocolatito.

              If you're propsing the WBSS as a replacement for the sanctioning bodies, the WBSS would have to seriously increase their schedule.

              We would propose tournaments in the original eight weight classes, alternating each year with four tournaments per year.

              Even years: HEAVYWEIGHT, MIDDLEWEIGHT, LIGHTWEIGHT, BANTAMWEIGHT

              Odd Years: LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT, WELTERWEIGHT, FEATHERWEIGHT, FLYWEIGHT


              If the WBSS had top fighters in every tournament and crowned their own world champion in each division, it's possible over time the public would accept the eight WBSS champions as the true world champions of boxing. But WBSS would need a lot more money and would need a lot of lucky breaks to make any of this possible.

                Currently the WBSS has only elite fighters at Cruiserweight. All four are unbeaten World Champs and the winner becomes the the undisputed king of the division.

                  there should be one governing body, lineal champ in every division otherwise you'd have bums like Charles martin becoming champs..the best avoiding each other and taking easier routes to become champions.. why not have the organizations in one banner and make decisions like how a football (soccer) organisation is run collectively.. no fixed head only tenures.. introduce checks and balances to avoid corruption to some extent and everyone is happy..that's an alternative but ofcourse there's always going to be a loophole yet not as big as the one already existing.
