EU lightweight champ - Andrew Murray
EBU European champ - Mezzache

E.U title can only be fought for by fighters from the E.U (European Union) and is just a stepping stone towards the full EBU title
whereas the EBU title is the full european title and can be fought for by people from the E.U and people from outside the E.U in europe of course
ther is also an ebu-ee belt which is the external european union belt which can be foght for by fighters in europe and but outside the E.U and this is also a lightly regarded belt that is just a stepping stone to the full EBU title

yet another alphabetty title, e.b.u is full version
It's sort of like the English title and the British title. One's a minor title that puts you in a position to fight for the major belt.

ebu is the proper title
i actually think the EBA is the best of the european titles,along wiht the new WBO European title aswell

Others have pretty much covered it-imagine it as a mini-pyramid.
European title
European Union title External EU title
Technically the European belt is the EBU one, but it can get confusing, particularly on here with the EBU, EU, and EEU belts and people get the muddled. Much easier to go European, EU and External EU titles.

Don't start :lol:
Andrew Murray no longer holds the EU Lightweight title btw, that honour belongs to Hoang San Nguyen of Spain(originally Vietnam).
