boxing sucks so much, why is it sooo damn hard that hbo, shw, haymon, oscar, bob and others just get along, everybody makes some $$$ together and all great fighters simply fight each other. i hate this boxing business so much, nothing gets done.

Its hard being a fan sometimes. The fights you want will never happen and if it does it is 5 years too late ect. The annoying thing for me is my favorite fighter in Matts is never going to be in the fights that I want him to be in. I want to see him vs Khan or him vs Pacquiao but won't happen. I'm already getting sick to my stomach reading the Mayweather vs Berto articles when everyone knows Berto has 0.00001 % chance of beating Mayweather.


I like PBC Format but need to start doing better match ups

I've been slowly getting sucked into the UFC the last couple of years due to my buddies just getting fed up with the sport of Boxing. Boxing is still my sport but they could learn so much from the UFC and how they operate. Maybe that's Haymon's goal, to have a Dana White type setup with one champion and a premier league of boxing. I'd GLADLY give up the alphabet belts and all the nostalgia that came with them to have boxing clean it's act up. If anyone saw the Mcgregor/Mendez card a few weeks ago on PPV, that's what you call getting your money's worth on PPV. Compare that great night to any PPV boxing event the last several years and you will see the difference. The UFC has it's loser nights too like last Saturdays Event but they are few and far between.

thats why we need more unified champs from europe, as they dont have restricted deals to avoid big fights
more champs like wladimir, and possibly with eddie hearn (as much as he annoys) me

ppl like wlad dont avoid mandatories and no politics involved with tv or other promoters, his own boss
golovkin will be unfied soon, but problem is HBO, as soon as he has a shit mandatory they might say no, or if has to fight any non hbo fighters, purse bids can effect stuff etc

its not just boxers
its corrupt broadcating stations which spoil the sport esp between hbo and showtime
