What Top 3 Fights Would You Make? What Rule Changes Would You make? What Rules Would You Eliminate? What Would You Do To Increase The Sports Popularity? Would You Create Any Tournaments? etc etc..... Its Your League... so whats your plan?
1. PBF-DLH II. 2. Toney-Hopkins at HW. 3. Trinidad-Pavlik at 160 4. Golota-Vitali 5. Margarito-Mosley Clinching is now illegal, like a low blow or a headbutt. Points can be deducted for running like DLH did in Trinidad-DLH. and finally, a DRAW can go one final round, to decide a winner. With the three judges, the ref and the Commissioner all scoring the Bonus Round. And a fighter must want to continue to fight, so Rahman would NOT have got a ND against Toney. If he cannot go on for any reason, it is a V for his opposition. I'd aim the cameras at the Ring-girls and have mandatory Ring Girl Contests at all Big Events. Also, all PPV Fights would have to go before a Board, to determine if they were PPV material. And if the more lame the Undercard, the less that could be charged. Hopkins-Pavlik would have sold for 14.99 in my World. DLH-Pac would be required to have a Girl Fight, and at LEAST one major Prelim (Mayorga-Bojado) in order to constitute being eligible for PPV status. and I'd make a MANDATORY Heavyweight Tourney. :hey
Hopkins would be reinstated rightful MW Champion, and Lou Dibella would be sent to jail for robbery. Toney would be reinstated rightful WBA Champion because he disposed of Ruiz before Valuev. This fight would be one of the biggest of all time, as the current MW Champ faces the current HW champ...two master boxers, and trash talkers. It would have been one for the ages. Margorito would be forced to face Paul Williams. Excellent rules. :yep
lmaooo it was too long i didnt even feel like reading every word... i did skim it though and it did make sense.... as far as rules go - judges must be old fighters i know thats one rule i would make for sure i think i would work it out where fighters & managers are free to fight however they want but at the end of the year there is a 8 fighter tornyment that basically works like march madness and the torny lasts like 2-3 months per division i think that would be hot.... im going to put ore thought to this thread later
it would be nice to have a fan fight all the #1 ranked guys have to fight the fan pick once a year 15 rd fights 4 the championships/ or make them 3 15 rds and see who can last less weight classes more tourneys more fights on abc,nbc,cbs
Top 3 fights Dawson v calzaghe Margarito v Williams II @ 154 lbs Hatton v Pacquiao I'd instill an instant replay and use WHENEVER there was controversy. Have only one belt with only one top 10 ranking system for all fighters to vie for. This is excluding regional titles of course i.e. Nabf, usba etc. Any suspect judge in any weird scoring would go before a board, and would be subject to suspension or revokation of his judgeship. Just those changes there would clean up the sport and lead to better matchups on a regular basis.
I like the Judge one. Left to me, "Judges" Chuck Giampa, Jerry Roth and Dave Moretti AKA "The Three Blind Mice" and Tom Kacszmarek AKA "Stevie Wonder" should be in prison cells at Pelican Bay.
Weigh ins can be the day before for promotion purposes , but another weigh in day of fight and a fighter can not have put on any more than 6 pounds... Go back to the original 8 weight classes so fitting into weights will be more natural and therefore fighters wont rehydrate 10+ pounds... Referees and Judges CAN NOT be from the same country as a fighter fighting in a World Title bout... For example if a World Title bout is being held in Britain and one of the fighters in British, none of the judges or ref can be British...
