    All of them. Everyone should fight 5 times a year like GGG is trying to do. With some exceptions of the older guys or injured guys.

      Every fighter should be fighting 3X a year minimum, injury free of course.

      One fight every 4 months on average is not a lot. They should also be taking stay busy fights instead of just sparring in the gym for months

        stay busy fights are pointless in todays boxing era...i wanna see guys in mega fights all the time even if that means them fighting only twice a year

        i dont want to see guys like ggg vs that japanese dude

        guys like haye really need to stay active to get back up there even if thats means staying busy

          I'd rather see fighters in two decent fights and a big fight then just two fights a year

            The thing is that Haye doesn't "need" to. It's a sad state of affairs but it's true.

            He'll fight Fury who is tailor made to make him look good and then it will build up hype for the Vitali fight which will have to happen. He has a chance in that fight but I wouldn't be surprised if he laid another egg.

              "Stay busy fights are pointless...some fighters need stay busy fights to further their careers"

              You really need to learn the definition of "pointless". Might as well learn what "hypocrisy" is while you have the dictionary out, too.

                How are they pointless? It would keep top fighters in the public eye a lot more then just the once or twice a year they fight. If you stack a card with Bradley and donaire and say maybe Berto vs some decent fighters that would draw big numbers while keeping them sharp an it could bring back some of the popularity for the sport. But the only way that can happen is if fighters are willing to take less money untill they get to there mega fight.
