What should happen to the Heavyweight titles ?

[kbackup408]

It is fair to say in the last few days the heavyweight division has taken a U turn, with the Fury/Klit rematch being canceled what do you guys feel should happen to the WBA, WBO & Ring Magazine titles ?

I can only imagine he'd be demanding Klitschko be stripped had it been the other way round..

Cant be sat dormant for god knows how long... Shame i like Fury and what he brings to the table but sad to say think they need to strip him and maybe without the pressure the belts carry he can make a quicker recovery and come back and claim whats rightfully his, or something along those lines.

that is a fair point, but Klit hasn't been in a similar position so its just another case of shoulda, woulda, coulda scenarios

It is fair to say in the last few days the heavyweight division has taken a 360 degree U turn, with the Fury/Klit rematch being canceled what do you guys feel should happen to the WBA, WBO & Ring Magazine titles ?

If you turn 360 degrees, you end up facing the same direction you started in. How is that a U-turn?

I know mate I rate Fury and his team but I think maybe stripping him of the WBO, WBA titles would be a good call

The Ring Magazine should be earned by beating the BEST I don't think Klut should be fighting someone else for that title unless its Fury

This probably sounds bad, considering the circumstances, but I'm not sure I care any more.

When you're in a sport whereby Tyson Fury, Denotay Wilder and Anthony Joshua can all legitimately claim to be World Champion in their weight division, does it even mean anything any more?

I know Fury was pretty much considered the World Champion despite it not technically being undisputed, but was anybody really that excited about watching another Fury vs Klit bore-fest?

I'm not trying to be glib, or diss Fury's illness in any way. But it's a sport where World Championships don't mean anywhere near what they should, and it's been that way for a long time. Are we really that bothered that some of the World Titles aren't being fought for at the moment?

As far as I'm aware there's no other mandatory in place so he's not stalling anyone's career apart from his own and Wlad.

One of the governing bodies needs to mandate someone, give a deadline and act accordingly if it's not met.

WBA can't strip anyone after the Fres-Browne circus of the last 18 months.
