It's a long running arguement with the belts & their meanings but anyone that says belts mean nothing...you've probably never fought for one.

No offense.
Sorry wack, but the IBO give him the belt after the IBF stripped him of theirs.

I know what you mean about belts and their meanings, to me the best belt is the one the best fighters have, BUT > The ring pawns all... if there was no ring belt then i could see why hatton would go for the IBO, but as the ring champ, honestly? the belt is pointless to me.
Odd...for some reason I thought that he fought Urango for that belt. Oh well...mistakes will be made but the point is that fighters do have a strap or two & they do mean something to them.
Yeah Ricky won it by facing Urango.
Everytime Ricky Gets wins new belt he gets a miniaturised duplicate made for his son Campbell. The IBO made him one up, no prob after the Urango fight
yeh he also won the ibf when he fought urango so its not like he just went for ibo belt...it just sorta came with winning his old belt back.
