Masters titles
Re: Masters titles
I fought for a Mediterranean Title, obv I know it is of no value and I didn't even win, but my name and photo is on the poster and it means the world to me.
It is all about levels and it was great for someone of my ability to say I fought for some kind of title

Re: Masters titles
Masters titles can be a good career move for a manager who wants his fighter to get rounds experience.
Take the example of Adil Anwar from Leeds. Last year he was put forward for the English title against Nigel Wright but the board blocked it as they said he didn't have enough experience because he'd never done more than six rounds.
To prove he could do 10 rounds his team organised a Masters title fight. They are pretty easy to sanction and it allowed him to show he can do the distance. This season he should box for the English as originaly planned. If he hadn't have gone down the Masters route he would probably be considered a six round fighter still.
