How many titles have you held this season?

I have no idea seeing as you are too lazy to add any input to the fight records thread.

Haven't won any so far this season. Could have had one, by fighting Hill, but I went after the tougher challenge in Fox. Not always about titles, it's about fighting the best. Funny enough, by us passing on a title for a harder one, that's how Calzaghe got a title shot against Hill.......

Keep the titles. The challenge to be the first to take all his titles is interesting.

I can only imagine how it would feel to "accompish everything that you wanted to"...
I would even daresay that you did not anticipate doing this well...

If you are asking me for my opinion, I would say that you should keep your titles... You have earned them.

I agree with Armageto, this is definitely an issue that should be addressed...

Whoever should succeed Fox for the various titles, could be branded "paper champions" as they never beat "The man". :TU:

Yes, the the "challenge" (you worded it nicely) to defeat Fox is hard...
But the reward for doing it is excellent! :TU:

To inherit ALL the world titles by just beating one man, it gives great incentive for the brs boxers. :box:

If he does decide to vacate the 4 titles... I believe that there should be eight boxers involved for the various titles...

No-one should fight for all the titles. :shame:

For instance, the fight-offs could look something like:

WBC - Gibbons vs Loughran
WBA - Jones JR. vs Spinks
WBO - Bivins vs Calzaghe
IBF - Dillon vs Foster

This is only my suggestion, but maybe fighters could state which organisation's title they want to fight for.

Well if you're going to suggest such stupid things, you've got to expect a bit of ribbing. :roll:

What's stupid about suggesting that the top contenders fight for the available titles?

I believe it would be unfair to have someone ranked 10 or below having fight for one of the titles. :TU:

I'm sure you are referring to the unjust outcome of the TJF vs Rosenbloom fight. Which if would have continued to 15 rounds would have been seen TJF retiring on his stool.
