Association of boxing commission curious thing

[Yanassi]

The ABC has a lot of rules that enforce the safety of boxers physically, not a iota of safety regarding the safety of their legal needs, or the mandatory legal guidance when contracts with any promoter or advisory entity attempts to take advantage of the fighters with slave labor contracts, that they cannot get out of. This goes on while the ABC closes its eyes, choosing not to protect the boxers who the ABC is fully aware are not capable of understanding the legal situations they are entering.
Why does the ABC allow the various sanctioning bodies or any other controlling entity rank the boxers not according to their obvious abilities and boxing records but instead in a manner that allows the legal entities to avoid the loss of income should their champion lose their belt. The boxers and us the viewing and paying audience are entitled to see champions have title fightsthat does not avoid the best challenges.
Lastly, judging should include the use of computer punch counting data to disqualify any judgement of a round in which they give a wrong assessment of which boxer has earned that particular round, whether intentional or by absence of attention, if the error in judgement exceeds a certain margin of accuracy.
All in all, everyone wants the fight game to be a real and honest sport. Even the news outlet laugh at boxing, they don’t bother to report on it on the level of every other major sport. I hate imagining why the ABC is not willing to protect the boxers who take the most risk.

You don’t understand the purpose of the ABC. Therefore, your criticism is misguided.

Some of the concepts you’re proposing are interesting and may even be beneficial for the sport, but a lot of the changes you’re proposing aren’t within the ABC’s remit.

There may be certain recommendations the ABC can suggest, but the WBC, WBA, WBO & IBF aren’t automatically obliged to implement them.

I’m not mocking you or being needlessly critical. Instead I am just telling you how it is.

We do the rankings to the guidelines of the ABC that was set out in an agreement in 1998, but a sanctioning body can still operate outside that for bouts outside the USA and they have their own top 15s that often make zero sense. The sanctioning bodies only have to report their top 15 changes and should have a compliant method to remove boxers that don't fight a top ranked opponent.

The ABC have little power unfortunately despite the fact it wet through US Law but if it was implemented and rankings were based on merit boxing would be much better for it as you could see a transparent way someone earned the fight.
