    This is the sad truth with the sport! We all know it was happening, but we would like to pretend it does not happen! There's reason why the WBA has so many secondary titles! There's a reason why the WBC created a "Franchise" belt out of thin air! The IBF gets on my nerves a lot, with all the vacant rankings, etc., but they seem to be the most straightforward, and consistent sanctioning body out of the 4!

      Great article, Sean Nam.

      This is the kind of work more of the boxing media should be doing.

      The WBA is dirty as f-ck. And I'm sure they're not the only ones. Just possibly the worst at the moment.

          Investigate Haymon and the WBA now. Everyone except the PBC cheerleaders know they are corrupt.

            But don't just target Haymon.

            Investigate Bob Arum/Frank Warren and the WBO too. I'm sure a lot of roaches will run and scatter if you turn over that rock and expose it to sunlight.

                  Who cares…

                  I guess we gonna ignore Bob Arum & WBO!?!

                  I guess we gonna ignore Al Haymon & WBA!?!?

                  please get the hell outta here with this nonsense.

                    Good article by Sean Nam.

                    Same old story, updated for 2022. The reason it goes on is there’s no political will for stopping it. The reason there’s no will is money. Sanctioning bodies aren’t the only ones in our land who like a nice back door payment.

                    Politicians and the law have expensive tastes, too.

                      All these orgs are utterly crooked and need to be investigated. As I've been saying on here for years and years, belts are for sale to the highest bidder. No real boxing fan with any dignity should respect these criminal gangs.
