The WBA’s controversial Regular, Interim, Gold, and Super titles have survived the latest amendments to the Muhammad Ali American Boxing Revival Act of 2026 despite earlier expectations they would be scrapped. Ali Act AmendmentsRather than abolishing secondary titles, the amended legislation creates a parallel Unified Boxing Organization (UBO) system while allowing existing sanctioning bodies to continue operating alongside it. That means the WBA’s long-criticized Regular, Interim, Gold, and Super titles appear set to survive, with the amendments no longer forcing existing sanctioning bodies into a one-title structure. When Regular, Interim, Gold, and Super titles are piled on top of the existing four-belt system, the whole structure becomes increasingly difficult to defend.
