    Kendal Holt doesn't have the WBO belt anymore. The "who" guy has it.

    Yes, it's surreal that the WBO actually looks like the most authentic sanctioning body out there.

    Actually that should be shitty, not surreal.

    Yeah I agree with Lance. Hell I forget that their is a WBA until he brings up another thread on them or I see them announcing the champion in some fight.

    I always thought the IBF standings and rules (the 10% shrink rule) was pretty sound.

    I also like the IBF. Its probably the least corrupt. WBA is garbage now, which is sad because it used to be prestigious.

    IBF is quick to strip anyone of their title so that they can constantly have someone fighting for their strap, and making them a couple bucks every time

    Just as corrupt as the rest, see Zab Judahs career for this one.
    They've fed him the IBF strap as many times as possible.

    The worst one being after he lost to Baldomir they gave back the strap to Zab because Baldomir didn't want to share a piece of the pie with them.

    They are all garbage. But if I had to pick the worst offender, it would have to be the WBA, with their absurd "regular" champions.

    Although the WBO is almost as bad; they created the WBO interim Junior Middleweight title for Paul Williams in the same month Sergei Dzindziruk was defending the WBO Junior Middleweight title against the WBO's own mandatory. WTF?

    They are probably all just as corrupt as eachother.

    I always say the Champ makes the belt these days, dont really matter wich one you got, you know if you deserve to be called a world champ or not,and so do we the boxing fans.

    But I'd agree with the WBA being worst of all. it's so obvious the other titles(regular,super champ) are for more money but they just don't seem to care how bad they look.
