If you were in charge of boxing how would you run it? Would you make it a tournament system for each weight class (like the super 6)?
Me personally I would get rid of all of the belts, make 1 belt per division. No more catch weight fights. And the champ of each division must fight at least twice per year, one fight being a mandatory against the #1 contender and the 2nd fight being with anyone within the top 4 of that division.
how would you guys run it if you were in charge of everything?

I would do away with all bodies and form 1 world body.
each weight would have a world champion, a US champion and an intercontinental champion like old school werstling. The US and intercontinental champs would be ranked no lower than 3rd.
world champs could only defend title against #1, #2 or #3 ranked guys and must fight twice per year minimum.
we got to remember their was a reason not only politics why we have more than one Boxing World Organization, a lot of regional areas thought that they are not getting a fair shake on things so instead of getting rid of all the so called world boxing bodies, will unifying them as one, try to minimize the number of WORLD TITLE belts to one per division and upgrade the status of Regional Championships specially the lesser know regions in Asia and Africa
I would make fighter purses performance based. That way there's none of this cash cow bull**** getting in the way of big fights. You want the bigger cut?? Go out there and win. The more emphatic the win..the bigger cut of the purse.
I would also employ incentive bonuses for fight of the night and knockout of the night. Giving undercard fighters the opportunity to make some decent money for showing up main eventers.
As much as i think Dana White is a D-Bag, i love how the UFC is run. None of this politics BS. Best fight the best, and there is no wondering more times than not.
I'd love for one of the "silver" champions (*pukes*) to say, "No. Sorry. I don't want your belt. I'm too ashamed to hold this belt."
That's the first thing for me. The whole Wladimir Klitschko and Alexander Povetkin thing with the WBA belts makes the whole point of being a champion pointless. I can understand regional belts, but that's it.
I guess any form of entertainment with money in it will always have absurdities.
i'd also make big fights all over the world. Im tired of seeing fights just in vegas. I'd like to see fights in Vegas, San Francisco, LA, New York, Africa, Asia. Make it internationally huge!
1 champ per division, no junior divisions, universal ranking system decided by unbiased experts, box offs between the top 4 contenders to get a shot at the champ, champ must fight winner of box off, and a special floyd mayweather get out of a fight card that a champ can use when someone dangerous is around
Basically everything Pacquiao (cherry pick, undeserving shots at vacant belts, catchweight king, refuse better drug testing) and Mayweather (take random vacation increments) do should be banned. You fight who you're told when you're told (barring injury, imprisonment, etc.) or you're fired.
The card girls have to be butt naked. That's the only thing I'd change. :boxing:
1. Card Girls Naked and trimmed. Each round has different ethnicity.
2. Unified title - with mandatory (Hmmm....maybe two belts for each weight division)
3. Tourneys are held amount top 4 each class
4. Manager only taking 10%
5. NO CATCHWEIGHT PUTOS for title fights
6. Increase TV network exposure on NBC, ABC, CBS and FOX
7. Sulaiman,Arum, King are disposed of and feed to wolfs.
If there is $$, random drug testing year round.
-Implement same day weigh in's
-1 belt/champ per weightclass
-Implement a tournament style competition for each division where there is a process of elimination till there is 1 man at the top. None of the picking and choosing ****e that's currently going on!
