    not a chance of getting rid of the alphabet soup organisations and therefore getting one champ in each division

    i would go back to 15 rounds but only for championship fights
    more terestrial TV coverage

    Yeah it was an MMA promotion from Japan. If a fighter used illegal blows or wasn't pushing the fight and stalling they got a yellow card which deducted like 10% of their purse.

    Also, a weight limit of some sort should be put on the heavyweight division, or a body fat to weight ratio, to stop all the fat ass heavies standing there throwing 5 punches per round and being exhausted after 6. Every man who cannot make the ratio should go into a new "fat *******" division

    My dream would be theres a Russian millionaire (like Roman Abramovic) and he goes and buys the WBA, WBC, WBO and IBF.

    He then orders all current mandatories to be negotiated or go to purse bids within 60 days. Fight must take place within 6 months.

    After the mandos take place they have 60 days to negotiate a fight between the WBA and WBC Champions, and the IBF and WBO champions. These must take place within 6 months.

    Then the winner of those fights must agree terms or go to purse bids within 60 day. Fight must take place within 6 months.

    If any of these fighters our injured they automaticly get a number 1 spot.

    There would be a new ranking system. Each champion has to fight twice a year, one voluntary agaisnt a top 5 fighter and mandatory agaisnt the number 1 contender. There would be eliminators for the number 1 and 2 spots often.

    If you are the European, African, South American, North American, Aisan champion, you will get an automatic top 10 spot in the rankings and be able to position yourself for a world title shot. You would not be able to fight for a world title if you had not won your continental title, and you would not be able to win a continental title without winning your domestic title. All belts would follow the same rules and ranking system as the world title.

    The commonwealth title would be dropped.

    Same day weigh ins would be a good one. Would make fight fairer.

    i would only have the WBC and the WBA like the old days but ideally 1 title per weight

    :good exactly. I use this logic but determining the lineages of the titles by using Ring ratings so when the lineage is lost through retirement you have to wait for Number 1 to fight number 2.

    I only recognise my linear champs really belts these days man nothing.

    that wouldnt work all that means is you would get less 'world' title fights in Britain but if the NY or LV states did it it would make a diffeence

    yeh warren started his own organisation to recognise them so the BBBoC wouldnt be able to recognise the title as another British orgnaisation had the fnchise so to speak

    i like it

    no love for the Commonwealth



    my idea is one Champ per weight

    3 belts per division, but only the top no.1 belt as the recognised World championship, and 2 lessor belts in descending order.
    1. World Championship
    2. Inter-Continental
    3. International
