Expect American Boxing Association is McCain Wins

[ottoevans]

Am i the only one that knows that McCain has been fighting to make boxing under one organization?

hes been preaching to have one league with one champion for each weight class. Also he wants to have every boxer to go through some medical requirement in every state.

With Bush out of office (don king's friend by the way).


ps. Hes also fought for putting little boxing gloves on game****s when they fight lol

Go McCain!!!!!!!

An "American Boxing Association" is not what is needed, bec ause Americans make up about 15-20% of top boxers. There needs to be a global organization to balance the power of TV networks

yeah a american boxer association plus world war 3 dont 4 get to mention that 1

This will never happen. These organisations are too money hungry for the government to stop them and it actually benefits them in a way how it is right now. More global revenue, meaning more funds.

All politicians want to stop the bad things, until they sit in the big seat and realise that the bad things have now become good things for them.

Maybe, but it's got to start somewhere. Besides, I don't want to see a single global organization. I'd rather see each country with their own national organization, own champions...that would make boxing more of a patriotic sport (imagine when two national champions compete, say England and US?) and should increase the international viewers dramatically.

McCain isn't going to do anything for boxing if he is elected. I don't even mean that as a knock on him (***** isn't going to help boxing either), it's just that whoever our next president is, he is going to have a full plate of problems that will take a much higher priority than boxing. Senators have time for this kind of stuff.
