arty:hammertimeartytimewha:arty [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Former referee and commissioner, Larry Hazzard, Sr., announced yesterday that he and former IBF president and founding member, Marian Muhammad, have formed a world combative sports sanctioning organization based in New Jersey. The Combative Sports Federation, Inc., or CSF, will include rankings of professional boxers and mixed martial artists around the world. Hazzard, a 50-year veteran of both sports, is eager to lead the organization as president with his partner, Marian Muhammad as vice president. Former New York boxing commissioner, Randy Gordon, will serve as the organization’s ratings chairman, and former WBC supervisor and liaison to U.S. Commissions, Rhonda Utley-Herring, will be the championships chairman. [/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]“We have a very competent staff with the experience and passion for maintaining the integrity, health and safety of combative sports. Together, we have more than a century and a half of experience in all aspects of boxing. Championships chairman Utley-Herring and I authored the unified rules that professionalized the sport of mixed martial arts while at the New Jersey commission, when no one else would touch them and for me, this is just the next logical progression”, said Hazzard.[/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The recent International Boxing Hall of Famer believes that there’s definitely room for a credible sanctioning organization in the world of combative sports. He is hopeful that his new organization will make the sports more competitive. According to Hazzard, even with the number of sanctioning organizations that already exist, they still cannot rank all of the fighters who are deserving of a chance to vie for a world title. [/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Hazzard says he and his team will continue the work he started at the IBF when he and Muhammad called a meeting of all of the major world boxing sanctioning organizations to discuss important changes necessary to bring the sport into the 21st century, such as the formation of a super heavyweight division, the unified use of instant replay, unification of titles, and increased participation of female champions. He also met with the Boxing Promoters Association, BPA, headed by Joe DeGuardia, who expressed their enthusiasm over Hazzard’s desire to include promoters’ opinions and comments during his initial development and structure of the CSF championship rules.[/FONT] arty:lama:soccerbl::clownarty
****ing hell another alphabetsoup belt, why isnt there one organization in boxing that just applies the rules for the ****ing weight division. one champ per division why isnt it possible. Fighters who climb up the ranks get a titleshot, champions who duck lose their belt. simple.
Combative Sports Federation = Shitty name. Any belt that is looking for recognition should contain the word Boxing in it. So that when you win it every dumb ppl should know that you are a champion in the sport of BOXING . Combative sports = Boxing MMA k1 etc ... Big mistake Second mistake The name should contain the word WORLD or something similar that leads you there like INTERNATIONAL , Since these words were essentials and the name WBF was taken they should've change the F . Federation ,Organization ,Council ,Union taken - then shoud've used Society or Institution (since Community ,Corporation starts with C and they be confused with World Boxing Council and ppl would call them the Bad WBC or the Fake WBC ). So a better name would've been: WBS - World Boxing Society .... :huh I think. Or IBS- International Boxing Society Or WBI - World Boxing Institution Or IIB/IBI - International Intitution of Boxing/International Boxing Institution ETC.
