championship belts
Winner's waist prizes
Championship belts are large, ornate belt-shaped awards given to winners in combat sports, especially boxing and professional wrestling.
They feature elaborate metalwork, often gold-plated, with the organization's logo and sometimes gemstones.
In wrestling, holding "the belt" symbolizes being champion: He's been chasing the championship belt for years.
The tradition has spread to mixed martial arts and other competitions.
