This "Super Champ" mess seems ridiculous...Basically, if their champ also holds the belt in another organization, he is upgraded to "Super Champ", and then the "regular championship" is made available again.. I just don't get how you could justifiably consider the "regular champ" to be a champ, if there is someone else who never lost it, and is STILL considered a champ within the organization...Just a BETTER Champ???
I would just ignore the sanctioning bodies and try to follow a more lineal route, once the titles start getting really muddled with sanctioning body nonsense.

Even then it does get a bit hazy after Lennox Lewis vacates the title.

Which Klitschko brother do you collect? Might as well grab both I'd say.
