They can but don't want to and why should they when they have fanbases who willingly pay to see them fight easy fights like Jr and Haye.

If they did then boxing promoters would lose millions from other fights.

No Floyd Mayweather vs Marquez
No Pacquiao vs Margarito


Which generated a ton of money

Money has changed all sports. All sports is a huge business I was just listening to Mike Ditka talk about how different football is today and how guys would never hold out back in the day. He said players today are smart and they should do everything they can to do to get the money they feel they deserve bc he was saying why should some owners keep getting huge money when the athletes are the ones generating all of it. He was saying I have seen so many players from the NFL go broke later on after their career and believe me the NFL doesnt care about you when you can not make them any money. As a athlete you only have so much time so do you what you got to do to get your cheddar because once your done Boxing or any other sport isnt going to give a **** about you and sure as hell arent going to help you out financially.
