      The networks, fighters and promoters seem to recognize both. The WBA has no consistency. You can't say only the super championship is recognized because plenty of divisions don't have a super championship.

      Are you saying Dmity Bivol isn't a world champion?

      Are you saying Kiryl Relikh isn't a world champion?

      Are you saying Daniel Roman isn't a world champion?


      And if a promoter snaps their fingers tomorrow and asks the WBA to sanction a random fight for the super title, does Bivol suddenly not exist anymore? Your argument doesn't make any sense.
      Is there a super champion at LHW? Or LWW? Or at Super BW?

      So before Charr failed his drug test, he was seen as a equal champion at HW as Joshua? HELL no. Joshua is seen as the WBA champion at HW. If Wilder fought Charr, would that be seen as a unification bout? Nope.

      And you said networks and promoters recognize both? Of course they do as they can sell BS to fans of the bout being a "championship fight."

      We have enough titles as it is, and now we are recognizing two titles in one weight class? Ha!

        No. There are world champions. But your position is that only the super championship is recognized. Either the WBA world title is a world title or is isn't. The super title isn't a world title. It's a super title. I'm recommending de-recognizing the WBA entirely since their world champion is often not their top champion, so why recognize their world championship anymore? I've been saying this for 17 years. Unfortunately, the industry chooses to continue to recognize their world titles.


        So before Charr failed his drug test, he was seen as a equal champion at HW as Joshua?
        Never said equal. Charr is the WBA world champion. Joshua is the WBA super champion. Most hold the WBA super championship in higher regard, which is fine. But what you're suggesting is that the world champions aren't world champions, except sometimes they are world champions if there isn't a super champion. Which doesn't make any sense. Being world champion and being super champion are two different things.


        And you said networks and promoters recognize both? Of course they do as they can sell BS to fans of the bout being a "championship fight."
        Obviously. So fans should stop recognizing the WBA.

        That is what the industry chose to do. We now have five recognized world titles. I'm suggesting we should only have two. Because nobody should have ever recognized the WBO, and the WBA's recognition should have been revoked in 2001. Leaving just the WBC and IBF.
