Re: Froch stripped of his WBA belt
I don't think it really matters. Those two have elevated themselves beyond owning a belt as far as I'm concerned. Everyone knows the score, they don't need a trinket between them for the fight to happen or for it to have any significance. Don't try and understand the workings of a governing body. It'll just give you a headache.

Re: Froch stripped of his WBA belt
Yup. And I see why the sanctioning orgs do this- so not one fighter can manipulate holding the belt for any particularly lengthy period of time. No offense, just fair to the other fighters.Originally Posted by Memphis

Re: Froch stripped of his WBA belt
It's not for the good of boxing it's for their pockets (sanction fees).
As Memphis said - belts don't mean anything once a fighter gets to Froch's position in the game.

Re: Froch stripped of his WBA belt
Casual fans don't know the difference between the WBC, W-BNP, W-IRA or W-PONY title. As long as it's a shiny belt called world they'll buy it.
Bods that get to Froch's position - fame outside the boxing world, massive fanbase, PPV fighter, worldwide recognition etc, won't lose his audience because of a belt.
Belts are clearly important for younger fighters and "no fans" fighters though.
