Sanctiong body madness with Char and Bryan

[TitoFan]

Yess...... I'm waiting for 5 WBA "world champs" in the same division. They need to think of another name for it.

The IBO is starting to gain a little traction. When do we as fans star the line?

Good question bro. One we've asked here more than a few times. Some will answer "just stop buying tickets or PPVs", but I think a more realistic answer is needed. When will we get fed up? When there's 26 alphabet orgs and each one has 8 "world champions" in each weight division? I don't know. It's pretty ridiculous already.

I think it's up to the fighters as well, Eubank wanted to be a champion so his IBO title was real in his and his fans' eyes. I think 4 is more than enough.

Fighters like AJ and GGG would probably bristle at talk of more belts per division. But fringe guys who otherwise would never be "champ" would probably welcome 5 or more "world titles" per division. By god, how many more names can they make up? There's "regular", "interim", "super"....... it's gotta be a challenge to keep thinking of "title-sounding" names. Maybe they can come up with "super-duper", to mean the guy who's the champion of the champions.

In regards to AJ (and I'm not just singling him out, there have been others as well) when he is announced, the IBO is always noted. He should put his foot down and make a stand.

The problem is we don't have 1 respectable body that we can all get behind and support. The Ring is a perfect example, with past incidents and having De La Hoya as an owner. The TBRB came into it with good intentions, but stringent rules and no consistency has basically become a joke.

As I’ve said before, I honestly don’t really pay attention to belts. The only reason I’ll bring them up is as an excuse to unify because a good fight can be made. I couldn’t care less about the actual belts. That’s also why all of these title defenses and multi weight champions are all a joke. It was much harder to be Joe Louis with 25 defenses with one title than it is now where you can start defending your belt long before you are even the best in the division.

Wait, AJ who is carrying around Tyson's belts as if they are his, and GGG who keeps counting his WBA regular title wins as major title victories, these are the examples?

Examples of guys who'd probably not welcome their division having 17 world title belts..... yes.

Regardless of your opinions about them, they are currently seen as dominant in their division. Especially Golovkin.

Do you really think AJ, or Golovkin would like to have one or two of 8 or 9 belts in their respective divisions?

I think not.

Didn't Tyson retire, as well as accepted a backdated suspension.

Do you still consider Canelo lineal champ in that case?

As I've always said all that matters is who you fight. We don't call the 4 horsemen the 4 horsemen because of belts.
