    So are they just making up champions now?

    What in the world is going on with these championships now? So Loma becomes promoted to ‘Franchise’ Champion and Haney becomes a ‘regular’ champion without even doing much... Someone explain to me why the boxing organization is just making sh#t up at this point. This is just getting ridiculous...

    They're getting pretty creative. Not sure what franchise champion is supposed to even mean. Maybe a dynasty champion next?

    It's making boxing more of a joke than it already is. This was a horrible idea.

        You might as well make another title called the “Super Duper Champion”.

          How about they start ranking the trainers and give out belts to them based on the number of wins their fighters have. Then they could start rating the cutmen and ring card girls etc..

              Yes, but spell it Sooper Dooper. If we're going to make a complete mockery, let's do it right.

                I'm waiting for the "People's Champion", "Heart of a Champion", and "Participation Champion" titles. Jokes aside, I have this creepy feeling we'll actually see one of those in the future.

                  "Heart of a Champion" I like that one.

                  I'm done with the belts. It's just about who fights who from now on. They've made it too much to keep up with. My God, no other sport is this complicated. Such corruption...

                    I don’t know what’s worse...the wbc crowning another “franchise champion”, or giving Haney a world title when he’s fought nobody.
