      - Less weight divisions: 200+ for HW, 180 for CW, 160 for MW, 147 for WW, 135 for LW, and so on. Ditch all the 'light' and 'super' stuff. That way there'd be less of this "champ in sooooo many weight classes" hype.

      - Only odd-numbered rounds in a fight, so there'd be no draws. I think?

      - Less belts, obviously. But I'm not sure if I'd always want just the 1 champ... Sometimes it's fun to have 2 guys saying they're the best.

              The no cherry picking fights would be my second.

              You fight who is ranked ahead of you, end of story.

                Boxing should have fewer sanctioning bodies, perhaps one or two instead of four.

                - there should be four-fighter eliminators to determine a mandatory.

                - any fighter ranked in the top 25 should need to fight other fighters in the top 25 or lose his standing.

                  Like a lot of people said, one champion per division.

                    Less belts. Maximum of 2 belts per weight class. WBC and WBO. And **** that mandatory bull****.

                    I don't see how u can stop cherrypicking. Big fights are gonna be made. People are gonna choose certain fighters ova others.

                      on thing i would change it would be the hand pick selection some of these champions are doing.Come on if youre a champ fight with the best dnt pick on softer opposition to get your resume up there.Also i agree with all those nonsense belts out there i would say 2 is enough for each weight class.
