So what is the Diamond belt again?
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

Another 6 months and there will be a third diamond welterwieght belt. We as fans know the belts don't mean shit, and you know it's bad when the fighters don't care if they fight for a belt or not. Mayweather Mosley is not for the WBA belt because Mayweather could care less, and doesn't want to pay the ridiculous fees.
Belts stood for so much back in the day, now they are just decorative pieces of metal with leather... This totally bums me out!
You are the Creator of all that is, all that was, and all there ever will be.....
One condition for awarding these belts, Mr Sullimain...
My boy Sergio Martinez gets to be the Jr Middle and Middle weight champ of both weights, and and he gets a tattoo of the Diamond belt on his arm, and if someone comes along with a really good record in the next year they have to fight in an elemination tournament for a few minor belts that are basically the birthstones of each month. Of course this would all happen each month on the month, and if one person is fighting on their birthstone month... you guessed it... They get another belt if IF IF they win 2 months in a row.
I could just go on forever. This is so fun

I agree. Growing up I followed those belts so closely, and they meant so much to me and the sport. But for some reason in the 1990's the alphabet gangs declared war on the sport of boxing, and Jose Sulaiman became an absolute whore, selling belts to everyone(diamond, silver, interim), demoting fighters who don't kiss his friends asses (Ray Austin) and threatening to strip REAL champions(Devon Alexander) for even mentioning the idea of fighting the next best contender.
