Old Boxing Belts - What Happened To Them

[KidDinamita]

What happened to the Old Boxing Belts, example Jack Dempsey, Georges Carpentier, Henry Armstrong etc belts? Do you think it would have been better if they could place them nicely in a museum?

It's a shame that most of them are not around anymore. They are all part of a great history.

Private collections.

Most of them have been sold off to collectors. There are some in the Boxing Hall of Fames.

Don't fighters get their own version of their belts when they retire?
