I said you can be "reasonably" sure UFC fighters are the best -- there are a couple of unsigned guys (like Fedor) but you'd be hard pressed to find many.

You're wrong about what you're saying about unified belts. Mike Tyson is the ONLY guy who did that in the 80s. Jones and Lewis did not unify accross the major 5 orgs.

Do you really want the belt unified every 2 decades?

Proof:
Dude dont try to talk boxing when you are clueless, who considers the IBO?

most Boxing fans go by the ring championship belt its a non profit belt given by the Magazine.

In 2002, The Ring created a championship system that is "intended to reward fighters who, by satisfying rigid criteria, can justify a claim as the true and only world champion in a given weight class." There are only two ways that a boxer can win The Ring's title: defeat the reigning champion or win a box-off between The Ring's number-one and number-two rated contenders (or, sometimes, number-one and number-three rated).[1] There are also only three ways that a boxer can lose The Ring's title: lose a championship fight, move to a different weight class, or retire. (The Ring does not strip its champions' titles like the sanctioning bodies do.)

Boxing title are good for the sport, they make more money having a title. Just like King of the cage has a title, WEC has a title, the difference between the ufc champ and ring champ in boxing. U dont have to fight for the ring org to be considered the champ.
