Lineal Heavyweight title is "bull****"?

[soul_survivor]

Joshua has been great for boxing. We have millions of new fans thanks to him. But it also means a lot of his fans are very casual in nature, new to the sport, and have no idea what the lineal title is or why it's been considered so important for so long, especially at heavyweight.

These are people who think the IBO is a world title. If Joshua was lineal champion, they'd be talking about how important it is. Joshua's promoter prominently features the Ring Magazine belt whenever one of his fighter's hold it, even though most promoters ignore it. I guarantee you if Joshua was Ring champion Hearn would be talking every day about how it's the most important belt.

Forget IBO, forget casuals, AJ owns the WBA, WBO and IBF. All legit titles?

He also has a better list of opponents than both Fury and Wilder. So why should Fury's title mean any more?

- -Guaranteed 4 belt AJ been the peoples champ for a number of years now and would hold the Ring belt when he beat their #3, Parker, after #2, Deyonce, turned down $100 mil to fight for Gummy Bears, the devalued worth of his title.

Fury gave up his lineal claim when he couldn't rematch the former claimant, Wlad who AJ knocked out.

Simples save few of you boys can't figure elementary arithmetic much less a fantasy lineal title.

Only in boxing folks!
