Shit looked awful. Cotto looks like a sucker with it. He should burn that thing. He should know better. ;) Good win for Cotto againt a guy that's been able to fight at this weight for a while an was ready for war.
Maybe its a new boxing organisation with a new set of belts, just what the doctor of boxing ordered.
Or maybe fighters that will struggle to get back to the top have started making their own belts at home in order to feel like a perpetual champion. Belt organisations will rue the day of the Home DiY Belt Manufacturing Kit. Ha. First up for an internet order for one of those, Tyson Fury, ha.

I think your right. You can see the words: "World Boxing Board" across the top of the title. Why in the world would Cotto associate himself with this belt?
What is the gay silky red white and blue belt he's holding?
He's the WBA title holder, he should be holding that belt. :confused: Is that the SUPER WBA World Light Middleweight title?
It's so fucking confusing. 'SUPER WBA world champion'. Give me strength...
I kinda like "World's Biggest Balls"
I couldn't believe that Michael Buffer announced the Martinez fight for the WBC "Vacant World Diamond Belt Championship". Then at the end of the fight Jim Lampley goes on to say the Martinez retains his championship but doesn't say Lineal Champion or even recognize him as the Ring Champion. My point is why are they making out the "Diamond Belt" as a Championship Belt placing more emphasis it than the Lineal Champion when even the WBC has explained it as basically being a trophy.
My guess is that it's HBO hype or possibly they are drawn into the Belt costing $50k to make.
that's the WBA Super World TitleQuote:

I have noticed that ever since Goldenboy bought The Ring Magazine, HBO, ESPN, and certain well known boxing pendants are much less likely to mention the Ring title.
It's a Puerto Rican board who want to award the belts to fighters who 'deserve them through their performances'.Quote:

WBA Super Champion is for Unified as i understand. Like when Marquez was holding WBA and IBF 126. WBA had a regular champion in Chris John.
Why the fu_ck Cotto is Super champion when he holds no other belt at 154?
WBC - Alvarez
IBF - Bundrage
WBO - Dzin
he should be regular world champion. Confusing :p
Andre Ward isn't holding any other title and he's the WBA Super Middleweight Super championQuote:

LMAO
Yeah Ward too. :o
My point is. Why the fu_ck they became 'Super' Champion when they dont have a belt from the other Alphabets? I swear i read somewhere that if a 'Regular' champion won another alphabet he will become a 'super' champion. i Think that's WBA Rule.
Now they award regular and super champions belt to any bout they want?
