Comments Thread For: McCain, Reid Aim To Establish National Commission

[raf727]

Restore the integrity it once had? Boxing has ALWAYS been known to have a darker side to it, hell thats what draws alot of the people in I imagine. Boxing has never been a sport, it was always a business first, crooked decisions, fixed fights, this has been going on since been going on fellas.

Props to McCain and Reid for at least trying to get the ball rolling in the right direction. All the Pacquiao/ Bradley drama aside, boxing in the U.S. needs a major overhaul and at least an overseeing commission. I would rather see one national commission and rid of all these individual state commissions that muddy the waters with different standards. That along with a single standard of rules and regulations could bring some continuity back to boxing in the U.S.
