I'm a fan of the WBC 'Silver' meself D


Or the IBA, it seems they reward you with this one for being fat, ask Toney

[Kilburn]

What chance have we got when the likes of Golden Boy Promotions are celebrating the inclusion of one of those meaningless WBC-whatever belts ahead of Mayweather v Cotto.

No wonder so many people have given up trying to understand who stands above who in boxing.

The British Boxing Board of Control Northern Ireland title is a bit of a jest.

I do like the fight between a Kiwi and a Brazilian for the WBA Pan-Africa title.

This one is also good....as if the Baltic region needs a second-tier title:

I am waiting for the WBC to come with the Vacant Silver Youth International Title, and at the current rate of progress I don't think I will have to wait for Senor Sulliaman to cook that one up.

[the truth]

These silly titles in unlicensed boxing that are even more absurd then the pro ones

[banjo]

Trailer Park Championship

[Adamj1987]

Head of rankings at WBC thats rediculous as supiamn overrules them anyway

They've got an International Silver and a Youth Silver....so I think you're right; it won't be a long wait! The inaugural fight will probably be between two 40 year olds.

Is it just the way those results are recorded, or has no challenger EVER won that belt?

In britain it's got to be the masters title ? Only because no one can tell you what your a champion of.

[keithmoonhangover]

It's not a new thing....

Marvin Hagler won something called the "Massachusetts World Middleweight Title"

[Brute]

Australasia used to mean Australia and New Zealand. Now you get Canadians and South Africans fighting for Australasian titles.

(Sort of half Commonwealth).

[ShadrachSimmo]

IBF East/West Europe. Ridiculous.

Last night Jaidon Codrington managed to contest the WBC Baltic title. Lovely stuff.

[kells]

why do you all get so hung up about what titles are about?? do you realy need any titles to be given for you to know who the best boxers are?? if say the wbc champ and the wba champ gave ther belts up and boxed each other because they wer the best in the division and say the wbu/ibo or wot ever was on the line, the belt still means fornicate all but the best guy out ther wud hav it so does it then become the belt to have?? no, boxing needs 1 world champ for every class but it aint guna happen so i dont know why use dont just ignore the whole title belt crap.

was he the lad who lost to sakio bika in contender a few years ago?

[reggaereggae]

I liked the title that was only for those of an African nationality or of 'African Descent' .... not even sure what it was called.

Technically any black fighter could contest it, whether they had ever been to Africa. A white person could contest it, but only if they held African nationality (south African EG.)

Very odd. I always wanted to know what level of black/African blood was necessary to make one qualify..what about EG James Degale, or the even lighter Tony Bellew?

Or as humanity orgininated from Africa, shouldn't all humans be eligible.

Not sure this ridiculous strap os still in existence
