      It keeps the best from fighting the best since they won't take the risk if they can lose.

        But how can they be at their best if they're fighting club fighters more often than real competition? I think boxing should really take a leaf out of MMA's book.

          going up to 154 to fight a very experienced olympic gold medalist isnt a big risk.

                  Thats what makes a fight sooo exciting.


                  Winner moves on.


                  Loser goes home.


                  Sorry, will NEVER use a Contender quote again!!!!!!

                      When that fighter had lost 3 (arguably 4) of his last five fights, and was about 9 years from their peak at #1 p4p, it's not a huge risk compared to by far the biggest payday that person is recieving.
