    WBA's Special Belts.

    I was looking at championship rules and **** when I noticed something I did not know. I've heard about just about every trophy or special belt the WBC has made but I didn't realize the WBA had done the same thing. I thought trophy awards were a WBC exclusive.

    One thing I like about how the WBA does it is they are mostly Super titles but specialized super titles. So they don't muddy anything which is probably why I never noticed them

    I found the 'Man of Triumph' for Floyd's win over Manny.

    They didn't give them ****** names but the WBA-S Canelo won over 3G is a special S belt with special plates for the boxers

    Same for Klitschko-Joshua. I never realized Joshua's Super was a special one to commemorate the Wlad fight.

    Floyd-Canelo was for a special belt that didn't get a ****** name too.

    Joshua-Parker got a special S for the uni

    I kinda like it. It's a nice touch for big fights.

    A post praising the WBA? How much they paying you?

    The WBA is probably the most hated and sleaziest sanctioning body at the moment, I don’t need to dive into it. There are plenty of articles, podcasts, and forum users that will tell you.

        One belt per division. I wouldn't even mind if they rejigged the weight divisions to make the bridge up the weights less hazardous to health. But we don't need a "Bridgerweight." Maybe make Cruiserweight 215 lb., make Light Heavyweight 185 lb., etc. With average BMIs sky-rocketing the world over, we could do with a modernization of weight classes.

          I don’t mind them as long as they’re just commemorative and are not transferrable.

          I hate the WBA’s super, regular and interim sh** though. They even have a gold champ now. It’s bad enough having 4 titles per weight class via the 4 organisations but with the WBA and WBC having potentially 3/4 champions each within one division is just ridiculous.

              I'm fine with just a ****** trophy belt that means nothing, like a Cinco belt. The rest is all bull**** that muddies the waters.


              Also, remember when the WBA cared enough to have the Super belt not the exact ****ing same as the regular?
