    i wish boxing was like it used to be

    is it just me or do all of you wish boxing could go back to having one title per weight category and back to having 15 round fights. i also wish it had weigh ins on the same day of the fight so there woud be none of that cutting weight than balooning back up etc.....the only thing i wouldnt change is the weight categories we have now (ie: super this and junior that etc) as i think that makes it better for guys who are right on either limit of the weight division, so they can fight guys their size instead of guys 6 kg heavier or lighter. but yeah the alphabet title thing pisses me off the most, its nothing to be champion nowadays, and then they have the interim champs and super champs.......its just ridiculous. im obviously way too young to have been around for the good old days but from what i have read in mags seen in vids and heard from older relatives it was just so much better back then and all these dumb changes are whats killing the sport

      The fact you weren't even around in the "Good old days" makes this thread a joke.

          I'm fine with the number of rounds they fight, but I would like there to be just one title.

                yeah but having an odd number would reduce draws, maybe 13 rounds
