      Agree. Having a mini tournament once a year (or 18 months) to agree a clear mandatory seems sensible to me. Less so for the silly version of the belt but it reduces the likelihood of the situation where ****** fighters get a shot e.g Stiverne on wilder.

      Wouldn’t it be good if wbc did this for the heavyweight?

      Brezeale vs Whyte
      Ortiz vs Fury (Parker if fury rematches immediately)

        Big waste of time that doesn't clear up a damn thing. The top 4 are clearly AJ, Fury, Wilder and Whyte. Fury is fighting Wilder. If AJ fights Whyte and the winner fights the Fury vs Wilder winner and there are no draws then you ended up with one undisputed champ.

          Lebedev, Shumenov and Goulamirian need to do something similar.

            So the 4 guys fight 2 wins and then AJ is still the real champ but they reduce it to only 2 belts in the division?

            Confusing

                This right here.

                Sadly, I don't see them ever getting rid of the extra belts. Just not gonna happen.

                  I didn’t even think he was still boxing
                  That’s the WBA for you
