As Mack once again researched the facts, It is so damn confusing, all these title organizations. I think the RING Ratings are the most authentic. Each organization seems to have their own sanctioned champion. I think Don King used to (behind the scenes) control the WBC by paying off Jose Sulaiman (SP) I remember something about this years ago. Also think George foreman in his last comeback fought a championship fight for the IBF? title. The wbc was formed in 1963, The WBA in 1962 after prior title of NBA formed in 1921. if my memory or research is wrong, sincerely apologize,
anyone know what title Muhammad Ali won over Liston, and who the hell was the last unified champion in Heavy weight class, Lennox, Tyson? anyone know?
