      1 champ per division, no junior divisions, universal ranking system decided by unbiased experts, box offs between the top 4 contenders to get a shot at the champ, champ must fight winner of box off, and a special floyd mayweather get out of a fight card that a champ can use when someone dangerous is around

        The first step would be to dump the WBC-WBA-IBF-WBO-ABC leaches.

        There is only one world! There should be only ONE World Champion!

          i'd also make big fights all over the world. Im tired of seeing fights just in vegas. I'd like to see fights in Vegas, San Francisco, LA, New York, Africa, Asia. Make it internationally huge!

            Due to popular demand, we will forgo our national anthem.

              Me personally I would get rid of all of the belts, make 1 belt per division. No more catch weight fights. And the champ of each division must fight at least twice per year, one fight being a mandatory against the #1 contender and the 2nd fight being with anyone within the top 4 of that division.

              how would you guys run it if you were in charge of everything?
              That all sounds pretty reasonable but too many pockets to line for that to happen its why a bum like Chavez Jr has a "world title".

                I'd love for one of the "silver" champions (*pukes*) to say, "No. Sorry. I don't want your belt. I'm too ashamed to hold this belt."

                That's the first thing for me. The whole Wladimir Klitschko and Alexander Povetkin thing with the WBA belts makes the whole point of being a champion pointless. I can understand regional belts, but that's it.

                I guess any form of entertainment with money in it will always have absurdities.

                  1. 9 round regular fights. 11 round championship fights. More action. Less brain injuries.

                  2. No kids. No unaccompanied women. This is not the Macy's Parade.

                  3. Joe Rogan or Charlie Sheen as commentators.

                  4. Same good refs over and over (Smoger, Bayless).

                  5. No product placement in ring floor, nor on clothes. You want product placement go watch NASCAR.

                  6. Super Heavyweight Division.

                  7. Open scoring and "sudden death". If the fight is a draw by the 11th round, there is a final 12th round, in order to try to crown a winner.

                      As much as i think Dana White is a D-Bag, i love how the UFC is run. None of this politics BS. Best fight the best, and there is no wondering more times than not.
