Manny-marquez
rios-alvarado
manny-bradley
are far more entertaining and meaningful then
broner-molina
danny-salka
I will take recycled big name fights over some cherrypicks -
I don't mind seeing rematches but what's the point if the winner of them sometimes gets a gift and the loser gets rewarded? As in Rios' case after the Alvarado rematch. As well as Manny-Bradley I where the decision was just ugly.
Those fights give boxing a bigger black eye than a mismatch, imo. A mismatch will easily be forgotten by the time they step up again. Plus, who really talks about the JMM-Ramos, Garcia-Salka, Cotto-Jennings etc etc type fights after a year or so?Comment

Obviously the rematches. They might be a bit pointless and annoying, but they're at least competitive and entertaining.Comment

The rematches are not mismatches. That's obvious. They happen because there are not enough fighters in the stable. What's unforgivable is when there are many equally-skilled fighters in the stable but would rather not fight each other. Garcia fighting Salsa instead of Peterson. Broner fighting Molina instead of Matthysse, Santa Cruz fighting a former sparring partner instead of..., Guerrero fighting Kamegai instead of Khan, Alexander, Thurman, etc. Haymon fighters are the biggest jokes in boxing today.Comment
