    2 changes you'd make in boxings landscape?

    Boxing is my fav sport in the world and always will be. I want to see a few things change though for the good of the sport. My 2 changes are below, what would you like to see changed if you could?

    1- Dont have 16 dif weight classes, not saying go back to 6 like the old days but 10 or so would do. This way we'd see alot more big fights.

    2- Have 1 World Champion per weight class.

      Close the WBC-WBA-WBO-IBF-ABC groups down and make it one champ per division.

            basically this

            unify the sport into one organization - like the ufc has practically done with mma

            if that happened almost all of the bullshit that boxing is peppered with nowadays would disappear....
