why is it we don't have trilogies in boxing anymore?

        Well, it's very possible that Pongsaklek Wonjongkam and Daisuke Naito will be fighting for a fifth time later this year.....

Forget about a trilogy at this point. Khan didn't want to avenge his loss vs Prescott, now Prescott isn't even undefeated and lost to a no name. Ortiz is not going to be put anywhere near Maidana. So before we think about trilogies, we need rematches...and we barely get rematches nowadays. A lot of fighters don't want to fuck with the guy who beat them and it's sad there's just a few like Williams(Quintana and wants Martinez), Mayweather(Castillo), Mosley(Wright and Forrest), etc.
            true. we need a rematch before the 3rd fight. frankly i really can't blame the fighter solely on not wanting a rematch in the fight, you gotta look into promoters who want to protect their cash cow like GBP with ortiz. and just people's influence's with the fighter that just avoid much needed rematches.

                Yeah he pulled out of the third Holt fight due to weight issues. He said wasn't gonna be able to make 140 so he got lazy and came at 154. He's not even that old, he's like 30. He threw his career away. Another guy going in that pace is Joan Guzman.
