    Today there too many world champions at each weight. each weight has at least 5 world champions,ie WBO,WBC,WBA etc, these reduce the creditability of thoes titles , when there was only one world body most people knew who was the world champion at each weight, today most people do not give a damn

    Or the Silver belt as the quasi-official interim belt whilst always having an interim, oridinary and super champion!

    Sit back, relax and enjoy the shambles that is the wonderful world of boxing.

    I'd definately like to see the end of all these different versions of titles. One world body & one champion per weight please.

    people power is needed, people need to stop recognising these mock titles and let it be known they wont support it..

    Oddly enough I think the way to do that is more belts. Bring on the interim super silver champion in recess I say!!!
