EBC - European boxers
AABC - Arabian/African boxers
APBC - Asian/ Pacific boxers
LABA - Latin America boxers
NABF - Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico and USA
I know there are others that break things down further such as South Africa, Nigeria but that takes a larger universe. This is a just an idea for a setup. I am assuming along with adding the boxers names you would have to add what region they would be in. I am just throwing some ideas out there for now.

Correct. The titles themselves are very very easy, the difficult part comes when not every fighter in the universe is eligible to fight for it (as in based on nation etc). However, this one is not too hard. Being that there are around (and i'm guessing here) 200 nations, it is a relatively low variable to deal with. There are two difficulties associated here though:
1) The more titles you have, the larger the universe. Anyone trying to go to that sort of depth with fifty fighters is kidding themselves. I'd imagine closer to 500 and possibly more. And if the ACTIVE fighter list is that big, then the Pool would have to be something astronomical.
2) If people were to use fictional fighters with unrecognisable countries of origin (lets say "Pepsi Presents New Zanzibar"), then these would be ineligible for any of the said regional titles.
I was actually thinking today that the best way to go about this would be to have a control sheet listing all the currently active titles. On this sheet, you could list the criteria required for a fighter to be eligible ie. African nations for african nationals etc etc etc. As an added bonus, this method of control would mean that at any stage during your universe you could add or remove a title of any kind, based on any criteria.
