What Is The BIGGEST THREAT To Boxing?

Sanctioning bodies.

I vote other, Three heavyweight champs, 4 welterweight champs. Multiple titles and sanctioning bodies are ruining the sport. Who is the champion?

the biggest two threats are promoters and multiple titles in each division , unification of titles is the most important

the biggest threat to boxing is when manny pacquiao & floyd mayweather retires... lets be real... The rest in the top 10 P4P doesnt hav any recognition beyond the hardcore fans... just my 2 cents...

I'd say Internet Streaming because boxing naturally loses some serious $$$ because of it.

Ok I didn't see the poll. I think the one thing you left out are the most important fights not happening (floyd vs pac, haye vs klitschko, etc etc etc etc etc etc). In most cases, who do you feel is responsible for the match-ups not happening - the promoters, broadcasters, boxers themselves, governing bodies etc? Quite a few other options didn't make the poll either, its just an example poll due to the 10-choice cap.

The biggest two that piss me off is the shitty promoters and internet streams, i mean if if u love boxing buy the god damn fights but then how can u blame them when the shitty promoters are robbing us blind with shitty cards for **** knows how much money!!

Aye.... Do you really need all those Superman gifts btw? No..................

For me personally it's having 10+ belts per weight class... Aye.... Do you really need all those Superman gifts btw?

We all hope boxing will be alive, well and globally televised (or streamed), at least as long as we're alive. Some say boxing is on the decline, while others will say it's perfectly fine. But what single factor do you think poses the biggest threat to the well-being, prosperity and longevity of Boxing as a sport and as entertainment? Just an example poll, there are a number of other possibilities.. I was about to tell you, "Great poll and thread", but then I saw that you missed the BIGGEST THREAT to boxing, sanctioning bodies. We saw just today a sanctioning body strip a newly crowned champ because of a lame rule and a tight deadline. Otherwise, great question.

all these shitty matchups, ppv crazy pricetags with shitty undercards. True. undercardss never used to be as shitty. It seems boxers are protected way too much nowadays!

Floyd remaining unretired. The sport will die.

4 belts and 17 weight classes.

Floyd retiring, the sport will die.

Boxing is the biggest threat to boxing (shooting itself in its own foot (ex. fights the public wants to see not happening, robberies/corruption, etc.)). Good post, I taught you well.

Boxing is the biggest threat to boxing (shooting itself in its own foot (ex. fights the public wants to see not happening, robberies/corruption, etc.)). Thats the whole truth right there.
