I'm confused. If he win(s) a title everything will be canceled. Do I need to use a letter "s" at the end of word "win" Does everything is okay with my sentence?
 
Yes, "he wins." I would use a comma after "title."
 
Does my sentence express the future?
 
Both the winning and the future cancellation are viewed as future possibilities.
 
It's a conditional sentence based on an event (his winning) that is in the future.
 
Yes, but the future dependent on a condition- he must win for everything to be cancelled, but there's a good chance of this happening.

If you read old books, you may come across If he win, but no one uses it nowadays- leave it in the 19th century.
