    IBF
    Robert Lee, President of the floundering USBA lost his bid to become WBA president against Gilberto Mendoza, so he opted to start a rival: IBF.
    Larry Holmes IMO gave IBF credibility when he dropped the WBC & accepted their belt.

    1st hint he was corrupt when he got caught for Bribes, totaling $338,000 in 1984 over rankings in 10 of the 15 weight classes.
    2 years later he was suspended & fined by the Ethical Standards Commission for accepting contributions from fight promoters & casino owners.

    "In the IBF, rankings were bought, not earned. The defendants completely corrupted the IBF ranking system."
    federal prosecutor Robert F. Cleary


    What I didn't know was the New York law enforcement started a probe of the IBF over the bogus draw Holy vs. Lewis. There was also suspicion regarding Foreman vs Moorer , where Moorer had to testify.


    WBC president Jose Sulaiman has always been my go-to guy for corruption, but Lee was just awful to boxing.

    I don't know if there's a thread on here with a timeline of each org's examples of corruption or suspected corruption, but I expect it would be quite a large list.

    The WBC are the greadiest but I think the WBA are the current P4P most corrupt. Some of their sanctioned title fights and rankings are mind boggling.

    Will always be corruption .
    Organisation change bend twist hide behind the very very Fine print . Well by swindle . Not just Boxing every Organisation around the world do this . Banks police Facebook church's heap's insurance .
    Organisation cheat the commen people mainly of money . Stop ya from fighting if they want comes from the top . Organisation won't pay for
    Your surgery if you didn't read the fine print an if U get to pushe for your surgery
    Probably just rip up ya policy up .
    Organisation can attack as well make something that way .
    Everybody in the world is slowly losing more an more rights as each year or decade goe's by , every photo an information message's from your phone organisation's all Reddy hav it .
    German people slowly lost more an more rights very year .
    From world war one right up to world war Two .
    People had no power all of a sudden .
    GERMAN people made to fight in a war . . .. what can U do like when Holyfield got the win against Lewis in there first fight . World could cee Holyfield lost that .
    People that had a Bet money on Lewis ay DA ORGANISATION Swindle all that had money on Lewis haha .
    Be very Funny if U cee a racehorse that had placed last out of 12 horse's be declared the winner .
    Boxing organisation really don't have to be like that . If it was runed fair putting on the right fights champs fighting the top 5 only .
    Be a hell more people Associated a round this best an beautifules sport boxing best sport in the world .
    U don't put a amatur with 20 bouts under his belt against a Novice .
    For me Fury had no right having that bout with Alex's an OTTO people with comen sence cee the miss match .
    Different in sports like Tennis playing someone rated way way below U ,
    , Being punch different rules .
    Just saying image that OTTO died in the fight with Fury .
    The strife that would hit the Roof .
    Doesn't look fair at all .
    Me Fury was the amatur with 20 bouts under his belt
    Alex an OTTO were the Novice .

    Interesting it is moving up Canelo will be bit slower roids won't give Canelo speed going up .. Dangerous for Canelo his smaller fighting bigger Lad
    Up in weight class to fast . If he went up slow an more time he would be able to keep his speed up there .
    Canelo probably lose if his die hard stubborn way can't handle a natural bigger Dude
