International Boxing Organisation - why is not considered one of the better boxing organisations?
Honesty. Integrity. Trust.
From its inception, the IBO's mandate has been to bring these qualities to boxing. The record shows that we’ve been – and continue to be – successful. That's why world class talent like Lennox Lewis, Wladimir Klitschko, Ricky Hatton, Manny Pacquiao, and so many others have been proud to wear our belt. And that’s why the IBO's objective, comprehensive computerized rankings remain the most reliable and honest in the sport.
this is lifted directly from the IBO website.
With everyone complaining about which belt is the best and who should be the number 1 contender in each division,. why does the IBos computerized rankings not make this THE top belt?
Good to hear your thoughts.

Probably because there are too many other belts and we don't need anymore..
and maybe because some of us aren't green enough to buy their b******t..
The IBF when they first started and no doubt the WBO shared their sentiments once upon a time..

The WBO has always been a mickey mouse organisation.

This is essentially the same BS on the WBA website. However, I guess the point is whether the IBO ranking system is fair and objective. I have no idea, but I suspect Truss has it right; if they were big they would be just as crooked as the rest.

Agree.
Sadly, in years to come they probably will be ranked as one of the main organisations. Hopefully not. We don't need another major sanctioning body.
