    Has anyone ever realized this, the biggest problem in boxing is guy's like stevenson or frampton who get a belt but avoid the real champion in their weight, basically they are pretending to be champions

    If you win a world title say IBF why don't you become the mandatory for the WBC or WBA champion, that way you'd get an undisputed champion every year

    because it would be good for the sport but bad for business
    But all the orgs have boxings interests as their main priority
    Go figure it out as I cant

    That would really go a long way into having all these belts unified but we know sanctioning bodies like WBO have no interesting in unifying.

    how is it bad for business? promoters can say what they want but at the end of the day every fan want's to see the best vs the best

    I know that you know that but just look what the wbo just done to khurtizde

    They can give it cameltoe not let him fight a mando and let him pack out Texan areas with it

    If GGG gets his hands on it who do you think he will pay sanctioning fees to first the accomodasting belts or the one that would not play ball

    WBO is guaranteed to get their 200k cut if Canelo wears their belt. 200k being the maximum cut they can ask for.

    Exactly where as GGG once got that strap after being so difficult would probably drop it and deem it lower than his IBO
    Which one of tghe top fighters in the world dropping and then dismissing and diminishing there strap would bed very embarrassing for sure
