Comments Thread For: Canelo vs. Fielding: DAZN Definitely in The Running, Says Hearn

[aboutfkntime]

World is world. Super is super. The super title isn't a world title. The world title is meaningless because it's not the highest in the WBA. So you shouldn't recognized either. De-recognize the WBA until the world title is the top title again.

that is the same kind of rubbish we hear from the WBA

I was correct earlier.....

silly bullshlt that was inspired by greed and justified by ******ity

recently, at least two journalists on this site have pledged to refuse to acknowledge the WBA lesser titles

the first reason why they did that is..... those titles are total bullshlt and they only exist because of blatant greed and corruption..... the second reason why they choose to ignore those lesser titles is because it is the OBVIOUS solution..... like I have been saying for YEARS

nothing in your last two posts are a suitable, or obvious, solution

no idea why you are REALLY saying, whatever it is that you are saying..... but I suspect that your agenda will become clear as this (RIDICULOUS) conversation plays out

that silly bullshlt was inspired by greed and is justified by ******ity..... wouldn't an intelligent man simply ignore the lesser titles, like the rest of the adults?

Really? The WBA is advocating that fans boycott them and not recognize any of their titles? Please, tell us more about that. I must have missed that one.

I'm not justifying anything. I stopped recognizing the WBA in 2001. I've never recognized the WBO. For the last 17 years, I've only recognized the WBC and IBF as world titles.

That doesn't work. Journalists have tried that for 17 years. They're partially to blame for this mess. If they had refused to recognize the super title, the WBA would have caved years ago. Instead, journalists tried this ****amamie nonsense where they recognize the world title sometimes, but the super title other times. Pull recognition all together. That's the only thing that would make the WBA cave.

ALLY[/B] saying, whatever it is that you are saying..... but I suspect that your agenda will become clear as this (RIDICULOUS) conversation plays out

I don't know how I could be anymore clear. The WBA shouldn't be a recognized organization anymore. Everyone, networks, fans, media, other organizations, etc should have fully boycotted the WBA starting in 2001.

then you probably needed to change your username and avatar in 2001

unfortunately, your opinion will not make the WBA less-relevant

you, wishing the WBA out of existence..... has worked no better for you than for the journalists who refuse to recognize their junior titles

I couldn't care less which of their many titles should be retained, but common-sense dictates that they retain the superior title and dump the rest..... which they have pledged to do

journalists refusing to recognize all but the superior title, is totally understandable..... and should be applauded/supported

the two facts below are inescapable.....

1) an ABC body cannot recognize more than 1 champion per division as per the dictionary definition of the word "champion"

2) this multi-title rubbish is just silly bullshlt that was inspired by greed and justified by ******ity

We named the account the way we did because those were the three groups we had high level relationships with. Doesn't mean we approve of their actions.

He's the WBA world champion. There's no such thing as regular champion. That's something fans made up.

Smith is the super belt holder this bum is the world champion. It doesn't matter what you call it. Its a second their WBA belt to the Super.

Just stop.

And the WBA is a second rate organization. So nobody should be recognizing any of their titles.

As long as you recognize the WBA, then you have to recognize their world champion as a world champion. The super championship isn't a world champion, it's a super championship. Words have meanings.

Canelo is fighting the guy the WBA says is the world champion at super middleweight. Either you grant the WBA the authority to say who the world champion is or you don't. I don't because they don't consider the world championship the ultimate prize and therefore I really don't care what they have to say about anything. I grew up wanting to be champion of the world, not champion of the super.

no..... that is simply not true

I - and the journalists I mentioned earlier, along with many other people I suspect - begrudgingly recognize the WBA, but scoff at their multiple titles

the point is..... having 4 official sanctioning bodies, means that 3 are often wrong..... so knowledgeable fans are used to deciding for themselves who the real champion is at any given weight..... the bullshht junior titles can simply be added to the "wrong" list

the difference is..... fighters are often referred to by the word "champion"..... as opposed to "belt holder"

I agree that Fielding is a belt holder lol

Either you grant the WBA the authority to say who the world champion is or you don't

again, not true

e.g.

on many occasions, the WBA do not recognize the best fighter at a particular weight, no matter what title they bestow..... so, their opinion is noted, but often ignored

interestingly (not that I give a fcuk) the WBA probably has more true/higher-ranked title-holders than the WBC at present

NOT comparing those two organisations, because they are both awful and I refuse to participate in a turd polishing contest

I know who the best fighter is, at any particular weight..... or, I know who needs to fight in order to make it official.....

I the only thing I recognize is the lineal champion or if somebody actually collects all four belts and becomes undisputed.

How do you "de-recognize" the WBA?
It must be especially difficult to "de-recognize" them if
you're boldly promoting them in your screen-name.

Do you refuse to watch WBA-sanctioned matches,
or do you just imagine that they're irrelevant while
continuing to watch or attend events they're involved
with?

I'd like to help you "de-recognize" them, but I'm not sure
how we can force them to bend to our will.

How many billions does Eddie claim to be getting from DaysInn?

Why not pay Canelo $500M a fight for a 4- to 6-fight deal? Land the biggest star in the American market and watch the subscriptions start piling up.
