Am I the only one who is surprised that Tyson Fury hasn’t had a belt knocked up to wave around when he is calling himself or being introduced as the lineal champion?

Is he the ring champ? Or is it vacant?

He doesn’t need it. He‘s above all that as a global superstar with crossover appeal. He wins the rematch and all (if it ever happens).

He doesn’t need one. Incredibly, considering the hatred he got for ten years from the casuals, even they call him the heavyweight champion of the world! Commentators in boxing and wrestling all around the world say it without hesitation! Book tour and documentary coming next.....

Hahaha.
No. Nobody that isn’t trying to sell him thinks he is the champion or calls him it.

Who is then? It must be vacant. Martin and Steverne meant nothing.

Are we to regard a draw against a defending champ a win now?

He is a former champ, nothing more.

Lennox Lewis is still the lineal heavyweight champion.

The lineal title is such a fine title, it's fitting that elite heavyweight boxers like Tom Schwarz, Otter Wallin, and Braun Strowman have been the last ones contesting it vs big Tys. It's obviously the 'true' title and the only legit one worth discussing?

Wrestling fans are hardly the most reliable arbiters of reality.
