    just like the 2001 middleweight unification tournament which resulted in a historic beatdown as hopkins dismantled trinidad. it would be good for boxing, fighters couldnt really duck anyone and when everything is said and done the true king of each division would be crowned. boxing needs more unified champions. is it a money issue, is that why they dont do it?

    I agree, we need to unify everything ASAP.

    Boxing needs less alphabet titles and we wouldn't need unification tournaments!

    Then nobody would be begging for unification tournaments...

    Unification tournament would be good at this point in time.. Doesn't matter what division we start with... But it did well for the middleweight division... We got the William Joppy highlight reel, and B-Hop emergence...
