The WBO has no credibility in the States, Real Deal. It's still the big three that matter.

neither does the IBF and WBA it seems

how about this great post from farmboxer over in esb

The IBF was caught on video tape by the FBI taking bribes and shown on national TV! How low can you go?!

WBA has Ruiz as their champion.

Crisp Tyrd is the IBF champion.

WBC, Lewis as their champion, actually Vitali, if not for Lewis' promoter, doctor and referee, but still Lewis.

WBO had Vitali and Vlad as it's champion and soon to become Vlad once again.

Don King bought the IBF title for $1,000,000 and a Range Rover!

WBA was taken from Lewis by the court, guess who? Don King again!

WBO is a Mickey Mouse Belt... I only rate 3 Belts

1. WBC
2. IBF
3. WBA

In my opinion after the top 4 bodies the IBO is the best "second tier belt" Lets looks at the evidence:
1. The rankings are completely idependent computer rankings which are not biased
2. This is recognised in the fact that their champs aren't number one in their rankings
3. All challengers have to be in the top 35 of their rankings so at least they are making an effort to increase the standard of the title belts.

I agree with Cat.

The WBC is a paradox, although the most coveted, it's probably the most corrupt.

This is easy...plain and simply none of them! They all stink. The only one that counts is the man who beat the man who beat the man. All world bodies have lost their credibility. The WBA is probably the worst of all, which is actually saying a lot when there are bodies like the WBB, WBF and etc.
