Automatic rematch for disputed decisions in title fights ASAP.
Allow for a rescoring in the event of a blatant robbery and change of decision if need be.Comment

you all got good suggestions... here's mine in addition to yours
- if a boxer cuts his opponent with headbutts in his last 5 fights, said boxer is automatically suspended for half a year
- excessive holding and clinching will get a boxer suspended for half a year
- force alphabet orgs to recognize a standardized ranking system
- more tournaments in the vein of the bantamweight tourney and the super sixComment

I would get rid of the WBA because they screw over all these young boxers that pay sanction fees for bogus belts. And the WBC because they favor certain fighters and give high ranking and title shots to underseving fighters. I'd keep the IBF and WBO along with the ring magazine. And would cut the divisions down to 13 divisions
heavyweight 200+
cruiserweight 199
light heavyweight 180
super middleweight 170
middleweight 160
welterweight 150
light welterweight 140
lightweight 135
featherweight 130
bantamweight 125
flyweight 120
light flyweight 112
strawweight 106
I'd take out light middleweight, super featherweight, super bantamweight, & super flyweight. Putting 10 pounds above light welterweight and pounds below lightweightComment

That really makes no sense IMO.
I don't even like your weight-class scenario because it's changing the original 8.
You can't touch and change the original 8 weight-classes. That would be horrendous. It's history man.Comment
