Government gives you the power to fix boxing. You can do 1-2 things to change the game for the better with no limitations. What 1-2 things would you do? You have no limits.
I would do away with multiple promoters and have 1 belt per weight class with a set system on title shots
I would have a panel ofwell known and respected judges made up of pro trainers and fighters, to start with! Who can judge better than them? Have then on life guard styled platforms above the ring or in a sound proof room watching on monitors! Id have ost every fighter. Again for starters! But theres much more to be done!
The judge idea is actually really good
Too many pro boxers can't live off the sport and need to keep regular jobs, I think the figure is around 95%.
So...promote, promote, promote, increase media coverage of the sport that on the long run will create more interest on all levels and bring in more money, bigger purses for fighters, that creates the premise for more talent to become pro. With more boxers able to dedicate fully to training we'd see an increase in quality overall on the long run. More boxers, less tomato cans.
Oh ye and ship Arum to the north pole.
