True. But it didn't stop people claiming Scott Quigg was a World Champion when they were counting how many World Champions Britain had, and many other examples.
He defended it about 5 times ffs. Wow the hate is strong if you didn't consider Quigg to be a legit world title holding super bantam weight. Next you will be claiming the WBO has more meaning or that the WBC have some kind of ethical standard that they impose. There is no bench mark among any of the sanctioning bodies when it comes down to legitimacy or consistency, it is just not there. They are all as bad as each other. The only consistent genuine belt worth defending is the British Lonsdale belt and it will be a cold day in hell before you ever stand up for that .
How am I a hater? I like Quigg a lot. when he fought Frampton, I tipped him to win AND wanted him to win. I also admire him having the balls to go to Freddie Roach to try to further himself.
My point was, and it's not specifically aimed at Quigg , was how can he call himself a WBA WORLD Champion when they had another "WORLD" champion that Quigg , Frampton and every other fighter in the division at the time BLATANTLY avoided to the extent that the only fights he could get were 2 divisions north!
It's not even a "Brit Dig" either , it's just the example I thought of at the time . having now gone read the list on the OP , I could easily have used Manuel Charr and Tyron Zeuge as examples .
Now for 2018, why don't we get hold of that little box marked "Paranoia" and throw it out of the window.
