championship belt

Victor's waist accessory

A championship belt is a large, ornate belt awarded to the winner of a title in boxing, wrestling, or mixed martial arts.

Unlike trophies, championship belts stay with the holder until they lose or vacate the title: He defended the championship belt three times before losing it.

The belts typically feature gold plating and elaborate designs, making them iconic symbols of achievement in combat sports.
