    also greedy promoters
    You must be some kind of weirdo to have that gay ass avatar Who wants to look at that gay picture? Luckily, I have adblock and don't have to look at the gayness of your avatar any longer.

    Things that annoy me? So called fans who put gay ass avatars of fighters they don't like for whatever reason in their profile.

    The alphabet titles. I wish we could just have one title.
    Day before weigh ins. I can sort of see the argument that it's safer so people aren't killing themselves to cut weight the day of the fight but I think Day of weigh ins would actually be safer. This way people would be forced to fight at a more natural weight class instead of balooning up 15 lbs on fight night.
    ****** fans

        There are only really two things that annoy about Boxing (basically things I believe should be changed)... which are;

        1. Too many world titles per weight class - There are like 4 world titles in each weight class... I think there should just be one, with the amount of world titles it creates more champions in each weight class and makes it less competitive. I think if there was just one world title in each weight class then it would be more competitive and it would me much more clear to people who the king of each weight class is.

        2. Day before the fight weigh-ins - I don't like the idea of fighters dehydrating themselves for the weigh-in and then putting on 10-15 pounds overnight to fight in a certain weight class, I think if you cannot safely fight at the weight without dehydration then you should be fighting in a higher weight class. In my opinion all it is basically doing is cheating the weight system in picking on smaller fighters in a lower weight category and having a physical advantage. If they had the weigh-ins on the day of the fight it would push fighters to fight at a weight that they can safely weigh on fight night so it would also make a positive on fighters being able to make the weight.

        Apart from that there is nothing else that really annoys me in the sport... I think if those were changed the sport of Boxing would be pretty much perfect.
