Do you think this wood improve the sport

It sounds crazy, maybe, I just feel the sport needs to move faster for it to be successful. The more a fighter fights, the more people know of him. They also have a better gage as to how impressive or how unimpressive a fighter is. It builds bigger fights, gets more money, would get more exposure to the undercard and overall helps the sport.

The Soup belts shouldn't even be thought of. There should be two belts per divison. And for big events, the titles can be unified. The reason for this is simple. If a champion is TRULY great, he'll eventually have both titles. Let's say he retires or vacates the titles though. There then are two champions. This way we double the chances of finding a worthy champion to fill the void. Because once both titles are won, they should be forced to defend against eachother.

This concept would have more division tournements, which means the cream of the crop would rise much faster, and we'd get better fights, more often then not. There should be a top ten for only one title. But the top four would fight in two matches once the title was vacate, for whatever reason. Then the winners fight eachother to determine the unified champion.

The way the champion should defend is as follows (in my personal opinion.) His first defense can be against anyone. Then he must face his mandotory. And so on, and so forth.

In terms of fees. Fighters should not pay fees. The organization that would run this should get an overall percentage from the gate, buyrate, and advertisements. As well as whatever the casino is willing to pay. That money can be used to advertise big fights, and earn more exposure. Also, it can go to benefit a fighter or his family if a ring death/accident occurs.


That's of course, only going to happen in my perfect little world.

I think that bringing wood into boxing would make it much more violent and create much higher injuries.

Petition to NOT bring wood into boxing

signed

Besides, pirates might start boxing then.

Never thought of placing 19 of the top 20 in a hat and pulling them out to see who gets a title shot, really the prob is down to managers and promoters who want to protect their fighters and make as much money as poss from the gullible public.
how is it that only the heavyweight's go to court if they don't get thier title shots

The voluntaries is where the good fights take place, so I don't understand this.

With voluntaries, the titleholders often choose the weakest ranked opponent, like Dawson did in June (Jesus Ruiz), and Calzaghe did in May (Manfredo) and Valuev did last year (Beck, Barrett) as well as Maskaev (Okhello).

With mandatories, it's usually a better matchup, and sometimes they risk losing their title (Valuev vs. Chagaev, Briggs vs. Ibragimov, Maskaev vs. Peter, etc.).

Sometimes choosing the perceived weakest ranked opponent as a voluntary backfires, though (M'Baye vs. Rees). And from time to time, a mandatory may be a weak opponent who got the shot through Don King's influence (Austin).
