Which is more important lineal title or alphabet soup (WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO) title?

[Lance Uppercut]

WBC is the oldest title? so that one from the alphabet boys.

The WBA is the oldest. They started in the 20's as the NBA (National Boxing Association), then changed to the WBA in the 60s.

WBC gained prominence in the 60's when the WBA inexplicably stripped Ali, and the WBC continued to recognized him as champ.

The IBF gained prominence in the 80's when the WBC inexplicably stripped Holmes, and the IBF continued to recognized him as champ.

I am a fan of the Ring Magazine Championship. I can't think of a single instance where the Ring Champion is not also the #1 man in the division.

No alphabet gang can match that quality. And there is not stripping, the above fighters have to loose their belts in the Ring.
