      It’s a case by case basis.

      A 19 yr old Eastern European with an inflated record facing an Olympian prospect. Yes that type of mismatch shouldn’t be sanctioned.

      A guy like William Warburton or Brett Fidoe who’s legitimately skilled and capable of competing with young prospects. No problem that’s a fine matchup.
      warburton and fido aren't capable. they are cowards... 😂😂😂😂

        Why fighters shouldn’t go on too long, it was painful to watch Zab in there this weekend, there was literally nothing left. I absolutely hate watching fighters lose to guys they’d have easily dealt with in their prime. What made this even worse is that Zab suffered a bleed on the brain, when there was absolutely no point of him being in the ring.

        I really wish, commissions, sanctioning bodies, promoters, managers etc done more to protect fighters. Unlikely to ever happen though.

        Thoughts are with Zab Judah and his family.
        It's sad because fighters who fight well past their primes do so because they need the money. They are broke.

        It's not like organized sports such as the NFL, NBA or MLB where retired players receive pensions. Boxers don't receive pensions.

        If they don't manage their money well and wisely in their youth, then chances are they will be still fighting when their skills have declined and when they are well past their primes and beyond their physical peaks.

          boxing is a criminal enterprise designed to con and decieve the public out of hard earned money.

          do they really deserve pensions???

                  Hell no! Have you ever watched Warburton or Fidoe fight? Getting beat up? Warburton has only been stopped twice in near 200 fights. And Fidoe has only been stopped once in like 70 fights.
                  These guys takes minimal damage and are in fine health. They are skilled journeyman. That are capable of defending themselves and competing against prospects. They could do 4 rounders against prospects in their sleep without getting hurt.

                      There needs to be a national commission that coordinates all state athletic commissions with regard to boxing. A ban in one state should be a ban in all states. They can still have slightly different rules between states if they feel that's necessary, each AC would be essentially independent but subject to a nationwide commission that makes determinations about the boxer's fitness, PED status, health, etc.
