Comments Thread For: Golovkin, Hopkins, Monzon: The Record at Middleweight

[HeadShots]

the wbo title in 2005 has nothing to do with you trying to pretend there are 3 wba titles that are all representing the number 1 fighter in the world. there is only 1 number one wba fighter... then its number 2 3 4 5! etc. 3 number one fighters is impossible, or they wouldn't be numbered!

wtf?? Hopkins wbo belt was his ancillary belt, not one of his world level ones. wbo only became a main belt after 2005/6. it counts nothing towards Hopkins 20.

you make zero sense. how is it you don't see it?

oh my bad it's the IBF which was started in 1983. literally right before Bernard held it. Nobody even took the IBF seriously. but you agree with it because the sanctioning bodies recognized it.


As long as the sanctioning body agrees with the title defenses. that's all that matters. so in this case, you fail.


your 1 champion 1 world doesn't apply to Bernard Hopkins because he only held one of the many belts as well.



lol @ you

[aboutfkntime]

gloves off.....

So until they change. Wba recognize regular defences as championship defences


So you’re just making chit up. Got it

they are as dishonest, as you are ******.....

if you think it is possible for an organisation to appoint three legitimate "champions"..... then you are just another lame fanboy ***wit

why do you think the WBA have pledged to remove those ****ty titles kid?

the kid is on a mission to break Hopkins record for defences lol

with 21 consecutive ******-posts defending Golovkin

notice how the real spastic fans feel the need to throw great fighters under a bus to make Golovkin look good

Golvkin is 6th at themoment, but he might take hopkins yet.

Lets see if he can pass Sturm first. Lets judge the man when hes retired like hopkins, for all we know he might go on till hes 40 and overtake hopkins one day.

How many defenses does Sturm have, man? If you're working on the principle that the WBA world title doesn't count he's only got about 5 defenses I think...

In fact we would have to claim that there was no WBA Middleweight champ between Taylor getting stripped in 2006 and Sturm getting elevated in 2010.

Indeed. If you're only counting the 'super' then Sturm has 5. Someone probably ought to tell Lomachenko that the guy he's fighting next week ain't a world champion though.

Personally I'm gonna count the WBA super towards title defenses unless there is no super, in which case I'll count the WBA World title. To me the 'super only' rule is akin to the other sanctioning orgs not counting title defenses unless their champion is also a unified champion or has had a minimum number of defenses. Under those rules we'd have very few active fighters with any defenses at all - which might not be a bad thing, some would argue, but also wouldn't be consistent with previous records.
