Alongside of the multiple belts today we also have over twice as many weight classes as they had back in the day.
It would be good to go back to when there was 1 belt for each of the 8 divisions.
But if this happened who would the boxing world look like today. A place where the champ had to take on the best with 0 ducking.

Fewer weight classes, mean the more of the top guys fighting each other.
Well if there is only 1 belt.

There's no viable reason as to why I'd want to. Just making an observation you nutta.
Off topic, to a point. Wilder, D4? Do you rate him? Unbelievable KO power but do you think he'll clean-up the HW division?

D4 thinks Wilder is a top 5 heavyweight, has power, a little overrated, and decent boxing skills and discipline and doesn't have a weak chin.
D4 doesn't think he will clean up the division though.
