what is the worst thing that ever happened to boxing ??

Coggi vs eder gonzalez, that fight opened my eyes and from that moment I learned that sometimes a boxer won't win no matter what if there is enough money at risk.

 

as of recently i gotta say Mayweather Ortiz.

 

Valero's death.

 

I classify that under cherrypick

I think so too. There are so many "what-ifs" that could have been answered had there been an additional 3 rounds. Marciano got his puncher's chance in the 13th.

 

Boxing having four "legit" title belts and not being able to create one belt that would be 'the' world champion.

The proliferation of belts

 

IMO, its greedy promoters like Arum thats killing the sport and\or politics...If we take a look in the past...Fighters got it on for less money and gave us fans the fights we want to see...now-a-days, we have to wait for years to see the fights that we crave for.

Today, boxing is damn near like the WWE with all of the drama. Its pathetic at times to even watch the sport that I love.atsch

Edit:I forgot to add, there are way too many belts today as well! Kinda hard to figure out the real champ in the division.

 

Cutting title fights from 15 to 12, followed closely by too many weight divisions and more than one champion per weight class.

 

There are currently 7 different champions at Middleweight. There used to be 8 in all of boxing.

 

#14Max Kellerman
# 12 Al Heyman
#11 Joe Cortez

 

the wba has three in europe :-(

 

Yea, this is disgusting.
