    Titles for me....

    Even with the multitude of weight classes if we had one or possibly two titles per division more fights would get made in every division

      too many titles obviously...

      if youre gonna bring back boxing to having the original 8 weight divisions , you have to also bring back the same day weigh in rule or else, the weight disparity between fighters would be too much and the fighters coming up in weight would be in a unfair weight disadvantage......

        There was another Welterweight champ when Duran fought SRL.

        Anyway the biggest issues in boxing are the promoters and robberies. Having multiple sanctioning bodies is not that big of a deal, fighters can either relinquish their strap or enter into a unification bout.

        Easiest way of looking at things.

        Donaire v Mares. What's the biggest issue with making that fight? Titles? No, weight? No, Promoters? Ding ding ding.

        Broner v Rios. What's the biggest issue with making that fight? Title? No, weight? No, promoters? Ding ding ding.

        Mattysse v Rios? Wht's the biggest issue with making that fight, Title? No, weight? No, promoters? Ding ding ding.
