    We'll unfreeze the young Joe Louis clone and set this heavyweight era right.

    It's sad when I have to say that the Mafia did a better job running boxing than sanctioning bodies

    Too much to list

    better judging. Pull a lottery of the judges from a large pool 48 hours before a title fight.

    15 round title unification matches.

    Only allow one non top ten ring magazine or non top 15 box rec title opponent per year.

    More world boxing super series tournaments.

    Some lost films to be found.

    My hope for boxing over the next 5 years is that discussions of it will take place in the general forum rather than the classic forum. But hey, that’s just me

    Cruiserweight at the moment, but I'll make my rise, I'm still growing n all (plus I disdain the CW class and the disrespect it's brought the likes of Louis, Marciano and Dempsey)

    That Fury, Wilder, Ruiz and AJ have all moved on and we have a new generation of heavyweights all fighting each other in classics.
    And the next Ali, Frazier or Foreman enters the division!!

    It looks promising, be interesting to see how it's all going to pan out and where the big names at the moment fit in.

    -Usyk and Ruiz manage to capture all the belts and have a unification bout
    -Further down the road, Hrgovic, Ajagba, Dubois and Sirenko all step up, realize their full potential and become the new Four Kings of the HW division, while fighting each other multiple times.
    -Serious efforts are made to reform the weigh-in and weight cutting processes, perhaps using One FC's policy as a template
    -We get Spence vs. Crawford and Tank Davis vs Lomachenko while both matches are worth making
    -The WBC drops the extra nonsense belts
