But this was not the case in the days of Mohammed Ali, George Foreman, Mike Tyson

It has always been the case. During the days of Mohammed Ali, there were only 2 major belts. During the time of Mike Tyson, there were 3 belts.

But now, there are four belts. Since they added a 4th belt (WBO), we have not had any man (fighting in the heavyweight class) hold the 4 belts at the same time. So, we have not had a 4-belt undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.

The last undisputed heavyweight champion of the world is Lennox Lewis.

shocked

All the best to Anthony Joshua vs Pulev...
Pulev is also a technical boxer like Joshua so it will be a rocky contest....
Pulev take bouts to the end and get decisions, so he knows how to throw body shots, evade jabs etc...
A Joshua win will make things juicy awaiting an unification bout with the Gypsy King, Many possible outcomes...
By the way Deontay Wilder has suddenly remembered his African roots after he was humbled by Fury...
He has term himself ''African Giant" has Oluwaburna finally gotten to him undecided





For New Laptops and Printers with K.O specs contact me on siggy wink

Pulev's defence against klitscho was quite embrassing.
It seemed as if he was defending Klitscho's punches with his bare face.

He sucked at ducking punches, sometime AJ seems good at.

The few times AJ couldn't duck Klitscho's hook went really badly for him

Talking, he won't talk too much and I trust his humility and respect for his opponent but my greatest fear is that CUPPY of a girl. She should make sure she doesn't skip her medications cos that could make her give my guy that thing and story go come follow..

Even football has just as many. Also, you must know that the main reason boxing has so many titles is down to the fact that there is no single world governing or sanctioning body like you have in sports like football, b/ball, hockey etc.

That's just it.

This pulev seem to have the experience, but AJ is younger, I hope he makes use of the advantage. I don't think AJ is at the top of the sport yet, until he faces one of Wilder or Fury, which he seems to be avoiding.


You people should stop this wilder madness, I told some of you that wilder is just a noise maker and I'm sure fury will humble him and that's exactly what happened. The same way AJ will humble either of them.

I need to understand something here..

Now Wilder has activated his Rematch Clause with Tyson fury... which may be btw June or July..

What Title is Joshua fighting Kuburat for now?
Joshua is not the challenger but kuburat. Joshua has to wait for both fury and Wilder to settle their scores before fighting any of them that comes top. boxing is a big business, sometimes a champion or holder of any belts dodge fight if he's not so sure of himself so that he can still enjoy his status. being a champion comes with a lot of benefits business wise, sponsorships, advert, and other image marketing.

Yes, bro.

Joshua has four belts, but one of the belts (IBO) is a minor belt.

In boxing, the winner takes all. So, if Pulev beats Joshua, he takes all the four belts just like when Ruiz beat Joshua, he took all the four belts.

This thing you are talking about dates back to the 1920s.

Ali and Foreman weren't even in the game when it started.

Pulev is mandatory challenger to the IBO belt with AJ, so the the IBF and WBO belt are not inclusive, even if he wins which of cause he can’t, he’s getting only IBO belt.

Title is by Association

The World Boxing Association (WBA)
The World Boxing Council (WBC)
The International Boxing Federation (IBF)
The World Boxing Organisation (WBO).
The International Boxing Organization (IBO)

And 17 Weight Divisions e.g. Heavyweight-Lightweight, Welterweight etc. Decided by how heavy you are.

And why is it that with a single fight u would win/lose three trophies or more?

Thats the risk. There are thousands of boxing matches every year; even on the night of a major fight- there are 2 or 3 matches at the same venue; but Championship fights are few in a year and big. As in BIGGGGGG.
Its winner takes all and its turn by turn.

To be number 1 contender to face the Champion, you have to wait for your time and slowly climb up the ranks. Unlike soccer where Oshodi United can play Manchester United in a friendly or Backyard FC can play Arsenal in the FA Cup and shine.

When your time comes like Ruiz against AJ and Buster Douglas against Tyson- you make maximum use of it because while you may only get $1 million for the fight; if you WIN- your next fight as the Champion (win or loose) is retirement money.

Pulev not the mandatory challenger to other belts held by AJ, IBF, WBA, WBO, IBO are all different body who has their respective mandatory challenger to their title holder...... the case of unification fight is when they all come together to organize the fight

Bro, don't get confused with mandatories in boxing.

Winners take all in boxing. If Pulev beats Joshua, he takes all the belts.

Mandatories are just to make arranging fights easier and fair to every ranked boxer.

Whenever Joshua fights any of his mandos, all of his belts are always at stake.
