Hey Guys, I probably read 500 threads here but only posted a couple. I am a avid figure belt collector. I have been collecting for about 15 years and own maybe the largest assembled collection on earth it consist of 399 different belts (except doubles for tag team pairs). I am currently going though a rough time in life and may need to sell it. I am trying to avoid this but it may be possible. Just asking if there is any good place other than eBay you sell a collection like this.

wow absolutely love all of those. What did you use for hangers? I look for doll clothing hangers all the time but they seem too big. Love to be able to hang shirts up like that. I use solder wire. I put 3 screws half way into a piece of wood wrapped the design with the solder few snips a bend and HANGER.

I think we will have to agree to disagree on the gym/camp I feel like and Fighter has to stay moving and stay evoking a great fight will have person trainers and a coach and or manager that will move with him and help them and stick with them. The "Team" mentality doesn't work for individual prize fighting. If the UFC did cards were teams fight teams and gives bonuses based on that I could understand.
As for Cody moving up he is the 135lbs Champ so he should look to be able to fight in say the top 7 fighters if he moves up to
Featherweight 145lbs Fighters Codys chances C Jose Aldo 😂😂😂😂😂 1 Max Holloway No chance.... 2 Frankie Edgar None 3 Ricardo Lamas ok maybe a 1/10 shot 4 Cub Swanson Cody don't hit that hard bro 5 Chan Sung Jung 😂😂😂 6 Anthony Pettis. Not likely probably +220 7 Yair Rodriguez Pick em'
Lightweight 155lbs
C Conor McGregor 😂😂😂😂😂 1 K. Nurmagomedov 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 2 Tony Ferguson Hey right! 3 Eddie Alvarez Ok he woul probably beat Eddie up 4 Rafael Dos Anjos Zero 5 Edson Barboza Zero 6 Michael Johnson Best chance on this list Could win 7 Nate Diaz Cody would actually get smacked
Cody hits hard for 135 that's where it ends. I don't think I could beat up a UFC fighter by any means but in no way would I be afraid of Cody in a bar even knowing what I know sorry...

Absolutely beautiful display. What's your favorite belt? I dont have a specific favorite but I for sure have a hand full that I like specifically. The Gold Dust Intercontinental belt because it's so rare, the Ring of Honor belts are the highest quality by far, the old plastic style WWF belt in white and blue, the NWO belts just look cool, from there I really like a lot of the MMA belts, I don't watching wrestling but I watch all things MMA. Do you collect? There are only 11 belts I know of that I don't have. And 6 of those are 1 of 1000 name belts.

All I am saying is no one team can teach everything is silly. This isn't boxing, this is fighting. There are exceptions always but more times than not pound for pound the fighter that has trained in 5 gyms in 10 years is going to WORK the Fighter that spent 10 years in 1 gym.
Snake this, snake that, snake in the grass, blah blah blah. This is Individual Combat FIGHTING. Cody isn't going to pay TJs bills. People seem to forget this is ALL PERSONAL, I love when teammates fight and I hear them say I respect him it's not personal this is what I do 😂😂😂😂😂.... a fight is all personal. 'I' will win. TJ won't loose this fight but that's only because Cody is becoming very Hollywood and TJ already got beat up for that. Again for the record I am not a fan of either. I feel like I whatching high school kids on Wednesday night.... they are like 135 right? Ok Middle school kids. Nether of them have talent past their weight class they would get bullied at 145 and hurt at 155 in today's UFC. 10 years ago different story...... maybe
I went to Vegas for fight week and tuf finally last year. I am going for fight week again but don't think I'm going this the tuf finally because I care that little about those two fighting.

This is a question on mentality if you ask me. Gang vs Great. To be clear I am a HUGE UFC fan however I am NOT a fan of ether or any of these guys. But I have to side with T.J. Fighting is a sport of individuals helping each other train to compete individually. Alpha Male seems to have a gang mentality with ideas that as a whole they can be on top but truth be told only one is Champ. They can fight at different weights but now fighters are changing weight to avoid each other. You train in a gym with a team once that team teaches all that they teach you train in another gym with another team and so on. Many fighters forget this when they get to top levels but 9 out of 10 of them changed gyms and teams many times on the way to the top. It's hard to compete and teach at high levels at the same time TJ is still competing he still needs to learn. I hope Cody gets BEAT UP for 2 and knocked out in the 3rd end fight.

Thank you! I used 16 gauge steel galvanized wire by Ook (from Home Depot I think) easy to bend and work with, nice shiney metal finish, two pair of needle noise pliers and you can get them to come out pretty nice. I don't twist them but I bend them to classic wire hanger shape.

PolishHill Thank you I really think so too. I was very happy with the look after I got them. I am going to buy a large quantity of them and create a wall in the back of the case at least on one self for starts. The case fits like exactly 6 cubes wide and 5 to 8 tall depending on which self. I get them on ebay from here
edit: link removed

Ok here the cabinet has 3 shelves. I am really happy with the way Golf Ball cases and intent to order a large quantity of them. I've already found the NWO spray paint belt in WolfPack Red and have it on the way.
Few Cool / Hard to find Belts Gold Intercontinental Belt
Steve Austin and Undertaker 1 in 1000 Belts
Rated R belt was rather hard to find.
Hogan Goldberg Sting belts I thought there was a Flair and Luger and Nash belt but cant find any proof ether way
Here is a shot of the Golf Ball cases I tried to rotate and save them but it keeps uploading sideways
and the entire case but again sideways and I cant fix it

Hello I am new to the boards here, I am looking for other Collectors of Title Belts (figure size). I have a collection of over 100 belts plus some doubles. I collect regardless of brand and more specifically to WWF/WCW/NWA/WWE/UFC across the boards. I have a small cabinet I keep them in and recently ordered a few Golf Ball collectors cubes and used them for display of some Belts worked out AWESOME. Anyway hoping to see what other collectors are doing.
