Top 3 Things You Dislike About Boxing?

Joe Cortez
Kellerman
Malignaggi

 

1) Too many belts. Never really liked the idea of 10 championships belts for every division with 3 being major, makes it look like a circus.

2) Trash talkers who consider themselves legends yet made careers fighting cabdrivers. Perfect examples to look into: Chavez Sr., Chavez Jr. and Concreto.

3) ******ed overweight fans who talk down on other fighters. Good example: Freddy "KFC with the family with pics'n **** yo" Lokz.

 

Manny Pacquiao
Paul Williams
Ricky Hatton

Kellerman
Cortez
Dan Birmingham
Shitty commentators
Robberies

Greedy *******s
All the alphabet titles
That Bagarooni **** from Ring
Shitty biased Journalists
Having to stay up all night for big fights from the States
Palle
Adverts in between rounds


..... way too many to pick just 3

 

I'm with the first two, and my personal third one is greedy promoters.

 

No undisputed champion, Too many belts.
One sided fights.
Bad judgeing

 

Bad Judges


Cherypickers like Floyd


And Guys like Paul williams who do nothing but complain and *****.

 

Bad matchmaking and mismatched or overmatched fighters...

The continued saga of terrible decisions in Europe mostly at Sauerland events..

The way fights at the highest level can be ruined or never happen because of human greed ... MONEY is or can be the ruin of our game... eg..(Lewis v Bowe) (Michelcewski v Jones)

 

You're outta your ****in mind. When does Paul complain? If anything, he does more for the sport by forcing guys to fight. But fighters like Cotto's ***** ass will keep avoiding him and hide behind their promoters.

 

1) ABC's: to me this is the obvious #1. Their joke ratings and random rules for belt retention derail more potentially good fights than just about anything.

2) Bad/corrupt judging. Boxing stands alone among major sports as the worst for this. It's only rival, ironically, is its absolute antithesis: figure skating. The amount of blood, sweat and deserved paydays of fighters that is flushed down the toilet of lousy judging is appalling.

3) Risk/reward factor. I understand it, of course, but boxing stands alone as a sport in which you can avoid good competion because it doesn't suit you. A cleanup of 1) would help this a great deal, but never fully eliminate it. It's engrained in the nature of the sport.

 

3. Too many titles and divisions.
2. Bad Judging (awarding ineffective aggression, out right robberies, etc.)
1. The good fights don't all get made!

 

Exactly! What's with this bull****!?!?!?!? It's killing the sport more than anything else that people mention. You don't see teams ducking other teams because the revenue won;t be as good. Whoever is up next should fight for the belts, regardless of who has the biggest draw.

Then you got fans acting like agents, trying to justify that bull****. True fans should want to see the best in the ring against the best. And eventually the sport will start to generate more money long term for everyone.

 

1. Dumb Fans
2. Judging/hometown decisions
3. John ****in Ruiz

 

1. promoters
2. ppv
3. sanctioning bodies

 

1. more than 1 title per weight
2. cherrypicking duckers
3. fans that have been watching for a year and now tell everyone how little everyone else knows about boxing.

 

those would be Amir Khans fans.
