All the champions in each division should be mandated to fight each other

A very appealing idea indeed! I am totally for it. Boxing must have an established best boxer in every weight division. Only then would the sport of boxing be fulfilling the main objective of competitions = TO FIND OUT WHO THE BEST IS!

3 belts?? the IBO is not a legit title and no he didnt unify sh1t..he won 2 vacant belts Ok, but he's currently holding three belts no ? What's your issue here, AJ is black or do you only root for Black Americans. You're weird as fück, who the hell scrutinises over race when it comes to boxing.

Lara fighting Gausha, instead of Charlo or Andrade is just so effing ridiculous. It's not like this hasn't been happening for a long time.

Hasn't AJ just unified three belts, and now has issues with mandatories to keep the belts, I bet you're one of these halfwits that thinks Wilder should vacate to avoid rematch ing Stiverne too. Like it or not AJ is the elite guy in the division until probe joker wise, Parker and Wilder behind propping up the A level opposition with the rest of the pack really quite poor with the exception of Povetkin and Ortiz whom I refuse to credit due to being cheats along with Fury Browne, Briggs, Stiverne, Whyte, Wach who else I forgot, Thompson, Teper ... All confirmed cheaters. 3 belts?? the IBO is not a legit title and no he didnt unify sh1t..he won 2 vacant belts

Of course this is how it should be. It would be cool to see this happen every 2-4 years. That way fighters can also make other fights, but as soon as those belts start splitting we get a year of unifications, no mandatories, only unification fights or the belt becomes vacant. The vacant belt from who ever doesn't participate would go to the winner of the tournament. The problem of course is getting the four main sanctioning to agree to this.

^^^^^^This. Unifying divisions is a lost art. Which is why we are stuck with the Anthony Joshua 's of the world.

It should be a rule that you HAVE to fight the other champs and then once a fighter gets all the titles then mandatories can come about...It should be the best vs the best period..the champs fight each other with the rest fight o get the right to challenge the true champ. Bad idea. Champs fighting champs all the time will ruin a boxers career. There needs to be tempo for picking fights. Get injured, do a long recovery, then off against the best in the division? Get hurt in a war, right back into a war? Nah. This will turn Boxing into MMA and look at what happened to Rousey. Ruined and suicidal.

I agree and not only should they fight each other unification bouts should be over 15 rounds.

I like the idea too but before it can ever be implemented then you are going to have to have an international jurisdictional/governing body in order to enforce it because all the sanctioning bodies have independent bylaws and constitutions.

Fists of Fluff Furry retired soft lad, lineage is open. AJ is no.1 Wilder no.2, the winner establishes new lineage should Parker not rise to no.2 before Wilder and AJ fight. so Joshua is number 1 because he beat wlad who was coming off of losing to fury? it's a yes or no question

Why so complicated? Just cancel all these organisations, boxing should have ONE champ in each division. But the promoters don't want one champion because then the promoter who controls the one champion has too much power. If the promoters wanted one champion, there would already be one champion. We have four champions because every time Bob Arum isn't able to monopolize the championships, he hops in bed with a new organizations so he can monopolize their championships instead. Bob Arum is more responsible for there being 4 champions than any other human on earth.

Agree. Problem is promoters and boxing organizations couldn’t manipulate the revenue stream in their favor. Boxing more than any other sport has been all about business for some time now.

Boxing needs more unified champions to thrive.

See the problem with that is that other sanctioning orgs couldn't care less about you fighting for other titles as long as you are paying them their sanctioning fees. Why spread that money around when they can have it all to themselves?

Stop calling them Champions first. Call them contenders. As long as you "people" recognize WBA WBO IBF and WBC as Championships, there's no reason for the problem to be fixed. Promoters, sanctioning bodies and casinos will sell you as many "Champions" as you're willing to buy. Hell the WBC isn't even ashamed anymore. They'll sanction anything thats going to make them 6 figures or more in fees and even make new belts for it until they can just start calling everyone that can line their pockets "Champion."

Tyson fury is the real heavyweight champion of the world. ask wlad Fists of Fluff Furry retired soft lad, lineage is open. AJ is no.1 Wilder no.2, the winner establishes new lineage should Parker not rise to no.2 before Wilder and AJ fight.

Ofcourse you're right; there should've been a tournament structure all along. In what other sport can you choose your opponent and negotiate salary, venue, judges, exert leverage that puts him at a disadvantage where he can be left without a fight if he doesn't comply.

or just have 1 champ.....
