At least in the US, we're too busy fighting amongst ourselves, both in and outside of sports venues. Then we call the victor the "world champion."

Of the two sports that use "world champions" its quite an easy argument to make that no team put together of a single country could beat the team that won.

Doesn't matter. Being the best in the world isn't the same as being world champion. You gotta win a world championship for that.

Do you really want someone like the Bengals to steam roll a team from Japan? Do you really want to see a 100-0 score?
We already have enough with the laughable FIBA finals where our 3rd rate NBA players wipe the floor.

Yes I’d like to see a 100-0 score. I’d like to see the US go 1000 games unbeaten. Nobody will take your World Champion claims seriously unless you win a World Championship. Simple as that.

Doesn't change the fact that they didn't play the game to deserve the title
