Is the Commonwealth strap the ugliest?
Great big gawdy rainbow across the front
Looks like it's got all the build quality of a primary 3 art project.
Seriously ugly title belt!

Oh I love gay people..... I just think it's a curious choice for a boxing belt! Like as it was pink (and I love pink...)davie wrote:reggaereggae wrote:I agree. It looks like the he Gay Pride Rainbow Championship![]()

Looks like something you'd win at the carnival for hitting a coconut with a beanbag!

I always describe the European belt as a bit of blue plastic with some gold tin foil blu tacked to it.

The original one has fabric rather than the plastic and wasn't too dreadful.Stuarty30 wrote:Good shout! European is frickin hideous!jameswilson wrote:I always describe the European belt as a bit of blue plastic with some gold tin foil blu tacked to it.
Lonsdale is clearly the best looking, but the Spanish championship belt is also really nice
Re: Is the Commonwealth strap the ugliest?
The ring belt is a work of art! I'll need to google the Spanish belt and have a look. You're right, the Lonsdale belt is a cracker.reggaereggae wrote:The original one has fabric rather than the plastic and wasn't too dreadful.Stuarty30 wrote:Good shout!

Re: Is the Commonwealth strap the ugliest?
No uglier than the world title belts, best looking belts are the Lonsdale and Ring belts, everything else looks like tacky WWE shite.

Who is your friend?
Re: Is the Commonwealth strap the ugliest?
I think the Lonsdale is pretty ugly; it looks like some old belt buckle I'd find in my grandparents' place and I'd much rather have something like the IBF red and gold belt.banjo wrote:No uglier than the world title belts, best looking belts are the Lonsdale and Ring belts, everything else looks like tacky WWE shite.
If I give it bonus attractiveness points due to its history (like I suspect many do) perhaps it isn't so bad.
