How good is the money in Germany, compared to with the UK or US?

Is the payday so good it cancels out the guaranteed points loss on your record?

It does help a fighter get a shot at the European belt, and so it is certainly not a very minor title.
Christ, anyone who supports another spurious belt MUST be working for the organisation.

Do you also support the WBA's multiple belts?
at last some support saying the European Union belt is just a poor, minor one, have you got in for me Horse?

I thought it was the effect that spurious titles had on boxing that made people dislike them, i.e. that it allowed fighters to go down a different path and avoid their rivals.

I don't see how the EU title gets in the way of good fights, and the holder of the belt often fights a few decent challengers for the belt before getting a European title shot. I don't see what is wrong with it.

The WBA's multiple "World Champions" situation, in a number of divisions, brings boxing into disrepute; and often makes it difficult for big fights like a possible Ruslan Chagaev vs Wladimir Klitschko fight to be made. So I am against the WBA's clowning about, but I do not feel it is a similar situation to that of the EU title.

I disagreed with you, so I responded to your comment.

I don't know what you expect to happen here at the Boxrec forum, but if I do not agree with something that you write then there is a good chance that I will respond to it and say so.

If you don't like that then that is just too bad. :D

Since it's been bumped, though, any news on Sprott's plans since his unfortunate bereavement pre-Prizefighter?
