Is the IBO a world title?

Do you recognize IBO Belt as a World Champion?


As far as I know there are just 4 recognised organizations: WBA, WBC, WBO and IBF but Golovkin and Klitschko (now Fury) always carry this belt.

What do you think about it?

IBO title is no less a world title than Rosie O'Donnell is a women. I mean yeah, it's legit, but I wouldn't brag about having it around my waist.

Ehhh, it's a notch below the real ones, like the WBA regular belt.

Didn't know that the WBA regular belt wasn't recognised (do you see as an interim one?).

However I think the WBA's one is better than the IBO's one.

Being honest in my book in terms of least corrupt to most:

IBO
WBC
WBO
IBF
WBA

Last two are a toss up in my book both equally ****.

Not so long ago the wbo was considered bush league too...so the ibo could become more prestigious in the years to come. But seriously...how many ****in belts do we need?

I was looking at their list of champions, and this one struck me the most:
