      I cant see what the org does to collect 3 percent. I understand they wanna get paid too but why so much a fighter like Canelo making 50 mil to fight is literally buying somebody in the org a yacht that's insanity. Then you have Josh Taylor giving 12 percent to fight a mandatory when his cut is just over a 100 grand what is the incentive to keep that title and stay undisputed

          GOOD ARTICLE.

          Ward spitting truths in a much more articulate manner than "We needz one champ in da duhvizzhun, mayng!"

            The epitome of a HYPOCRITE, a fake Christian who let a gangster manage him, collected millions of dollars while defending those same belts he's talking smack about and just one salty, hating, jealous MF, thankfully he's retired and we don't have to see his awful boring self anymore...

                  As usual, Dre spitting the truth.

                  I never understood why folks have so much hate in their heart for the dude, who seems to be a real Bay Area cat in real life, but whatever.

                  Boxing would be better off if some crazy billionaire just bought all the sanctioning bodies, combined them, and instituted a real, legitimate system, sort of like UFC, but less exploitative.

                    Does De La Hoya still own Ring magazine? Think I remember seeing he bought it years back when around when he started Golden Boy promotions

                      Why can't the 4 bodies do a unification series every 4 years or so? Take all 4 belts, have semi-final and final to find a number 1 dude. Then that dude can either defend or drop the belts depending on whatever he wants to do. Have it every 4 years like a World Cup or Olympics and make it something special, do it on PPV and make that money.
