Welcome the undisputed trend
2021 could actually see a very welcome development in the sport - the habit of becoming an undisputed champion might just be catching on
ONE champion in each division. It’s hardly a novel concept, yet at this point in history a single world champion in every division is an impossible dream. But one world champion in at least a few of them – that shouldn’t be too much to ask. When Terence Crawford unified the WBC, WBA, IBF and WBO super-lightweight titles in 2017 it was a rare feat. He was then the first undisputed world champion seen in men’s boxing since 2005. It was a remarkable milestone, not only because of Crawford’s uncommon talent but also because of the sport’s at times infuriating politics. He only had 11 days with his IBF belt before he had to vacate it.
