is "dignity, democracy, honesty." When a WBO champion has reached "preeminent status", the WBO's Executive Committee may designate him as a " Super Champion". However, this is only an honorary title and not the same as the WBA's policy of having separate "Super" and "Regular" champions. A WBO "Super Champion" cannot win or lose that recognition in the ring; it is merely awarded by the WBO.


''The Ring''

The boxing magazine '' The Ring'' awards its own belts. The original title sequence began from the magazine's first publication in the 1920s until its titles were placed on hiatus in 1989, continuing as late as 1992 in some divisions. When ''The Ring'' started awarding titles again in 2001, it did not calculate retrospective lineages to fill in the gap years, instead nominating a new champion. In 2007, ''The Ring'' was acquired by the owners of fight promoter

in 2008). Since 2012, to reduce the number of vacant titles, ''The Ring'' allows fights between a number one or two contender; or alternatively a number three, four, or five contender to fill a vacant title. This has prompted further doubts about its credibility. Some boxing journalists have been extremely critical of the new championship policy and state that if this new policy is followed, the ''Ring'' title may lose the credibility it once held.
