    Mismatches Continue in Asia Without Letup

    Mismatches in Asia continue without let-up and the governing bodies for boxing in the different countries as well as the region are either helpless or in connivance with promoters, managers and matchmakers to allow such fights to take place.

    Question: Is this just the PABA who is making contasnt mismatches or is the OPBF (WBC version of the PABA) doing it too?

      This is a recipe for diaster.

      Once they find a guy that can take a good punch, but be totally brutalized for 6-12 rounds, then add to that an incompetant ref, and someone is going to die.

        This is where I realize how hard it would be for boxing to have a commissioner like so many of us want. He'd have to oversee a sport that is truly a global affair. In the NFL or NBA you just have to deal with American problems - American athletes, and American culture. If we had a boxing commissioner he'd have to try and contend with Asia, Europe, the Latin American countries, Australia - and be culturally sensitive to all of them. It'd be a grueling, tiresome and oft thankless job.

          Well, if the boxers are dumb enough to sign the contracts and know they're not in the same league as the guy they are fighting. Then as ****ed up as it sounds, they're dumb.

            lol Giiiit the **** outta here with these stories arleady.

            If these guys are starvin and are willing to lace their gloves up to eat one more day, so be it. Just cause your a proud asian, that doesnt like your people gettin knocked the **** out, well then....you better find a better way to feed your people. Cause they're willing to get in the ring for that paycheck.

            If you're that obsessed with this issue, you better start payin your bum ass fighters NOT TO FIGHT lol.

              Money....
              Im sure they must offer them a bonus if they can last until a determined number of rounds.
              If they pay them **** and the think they can win, then you are right, they are dumb =P

                    Mexico is the worlds 13th best economy. Thats well higher then most European countries, and Mexicans get placed in Mismatches on just about every episode of ESPN fights and are frequently mismatched up in the early careers of potential prospects in order to get the main fighter tuned up in his early career.

                    So I doubt your location on the globe would prevent your people from gettin slaughtered in the ring lol. If they're hungry, and willing, they will get in the ring reguardless.

                    If your people are insecure about their people gettin smashed, lol then like I said. They need to be paid, to NOT fight.

                    All these "another mismatch" articles, have to be written by some sort of phillipino sympathizer's that sit back and get their little ego's bruised everytime a "mismatch happens" lol. this type of thing has been goin for a while and now this is a issue? lol Giiiiiiiiit the **** outa here. Reach in your pockets, and pay em to stay home.

                    "YO!...I'm ready to fight!"- the guy

                    *pat the guy on the back*

                    "lol nah *****, take this 50 bones and sit your ass down."- you

                    voila, problem solved..
