Boxing is so corrupted

Boxing is not the same sport as football, basketball, hockey, where you have to beat the same teams to win the trophy every year. If you think that picking Margarito for title shot is disgrace, the same way you can say the same thing for lot of fights held in boxing. Why did Wlad picked Chisora (decent but beatable) for title fight? Why did Berto picked Hernandez (absolutely beatable) for title fight? Why Roy Jones was picked directly to the final to fight John Ruiz?Comment

It always has been. People here act like excess belts, greedy promoters, or unscrupulous governing bodies are something new. None of us like it, but it comes with the package of boxing. There's plenty of outcry from announcers and a little from some fighters, but complaining and fighting the power are 2 different things.Comment

So Pacquiao has to beat Cotto every year to prove he is the WBO champion? Nope boxing doesn't work like football. You don't have to go through group stages or playoffs, you can jump directly to the final.Comment

so you see no problem with a fighter getting a world title fight at a weight he has never fought at or proven himself at before? Just because its pacqiuao its ok? Same rules should apply to everyone...Comment

Hey im not just picking on Pacqiuao he is just a more recent example. Wlads defence against chisora is a voluntary defence at a weight he has campained at his whole career so pretty bad example there bro..Boxing is not the same sport as football, basketball, hockey, where you have to beat the same teams to win the trophy every year.
