Does anyone really care about the world champ title? the only use we have of the title, is for promotion. Lets just have diferent titles for diferent tournaments, thats better!
Also, for me there is no such a thing as "world champion" in freestyle.
I don't know why so many of you share this opinion? Why are so many opposed to having a champion? Every sport needs someone who is "the best" whether it's accurate or not. It creates competition, excitement, and something to measure yourself to.
I think it'd be great to know who the top 3 freestylers are. Something like Tennis, for example. I like seeing the rankings of Djokovic, Nadal, and Federer. It makes future competitions between them more exciting and creates that extra bit of competitiveness. It also helps create fans and passion when you have underdogs, defending champs, etc.
The problem for freestyle is that its based on a few persons judgment and opinions, there is no real guidline. In tennis, soccer, hockey, basketball it is easy to judge, the team with the most goals is the winner. But in freestyle, for some people, maybe a patw combo is much harder than a ahmatw combo. But for another person, maybe they think that the ahmatw combo is harder than the patw combo. It's very difficult then to get a worthy winner.
if we have different titles for different competitions, we will know for what reason the different freestylers became masters. If there is one freestyler that is Red Bull Street Style champion, we will know for what reason he won. And if another person has won the event in Prague, we will know for what reason that person won.
