BMF belt or the interim belt - Which is more prestigious?

[Takes Two To Tango]

Just curious what the numbers will be on here.

I wonder if it will be close.

My boyscouts perfect attendance badge.

Which do you fuckin think, my guy?

 

[Spam On Rye]

Whichever one gets you a bigger paycheck.

Good point, interesting.

 

[humdizzle]

probably interim

i think both get ppv points, but the interim belt can be defended.

The Saku belt is the most prestigious belt

I went for BMF because it's across all divisions and most won't get a chance to fight for it so pretty much impossible for most to reach. Because of this, it has now a certain prestige. Max had something to do with that......he has basically legitimised it.

Interim belts are complete bullshit most of the time. I don't think they're necessary really.

That's a solid argument. Well said.

HW interim

BMF in this particular run has a decent "lineage" by now too tho, Masvidal´s BMF means shit.

 

[Ares Black]

Well the BMF belt is the opposite of prestigious, so the interim.

 

[ninja boot]

The only value to either is for the UFC when they have no options for headliner fights.
At least interim belts lead to actual title fights.

The belt that wasn't made for perennial journeymen Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal.

Interim title may be a result of some scumbag with Dana privilege holding up the division. It may be a real belt in everything but the name. BMF belt is a joke and that's it.

 

[OldBoy91]

The Saku belt is the most prestigious belt

The Super Hluk is up there as well.

 

[Wilmer Digreux]

Bmf. Especially after that last fight

having an interim belt is like sharing a belt with another person. Not much prestige in that. Plus...how many interim title holders has there been in ufc history? A fuckton. But how many bmf champs have we had? 2 i think.

 

[Spiderbite]

They're both symbolic and equally pointless.

 

[Lawrence]

Renen Barao defended his interim belt three times. Most legit.

Aspinall defended his interim belt because the Champion is ducking him, but Tom is knocking down whoever is put in front of him. Very legit

Max v Dustin was a fight for the ages.... But when I think about that fight... BMF does not come to mind.

Other BMF fights... Not legit. (love Nate, but not legit)


Other interim belts rarely come to mind either.

Honestly at this point in the circus I’d rather have the BMF belt.
Interim belts are pretty much plastic place holders. Their worth have been cheapened since the UFC wants to hand them out like happy meal toys. Hell they aren’t even guaranteed a real title fight if you have an interim belt

 

[Egészségére!]

Ilia’s chasing champ belts & the BMF & not interim belts so there’s that

It’s all because of Gaethje v Max ko though

 

[BJJ4Tone]

Well, the BMF belt has ZERO meaning or validity.... soo......
