What if boxing were like it was in the old days, back when there was only one champion per division not three or four. How different would the sport be today?
The same. The best would still be the ones at the top. You just wouldn't have the marketing that you do now with fights of lesser importance being billed as "title" fights.
And the fights would get made. If only one champion then the top guys have to fight him period. No politics like today.
many would Fall Away out of Contention with such Fight demands and some NEVER becoming Champions and the Sport's recent history would be rewritten!
Our current world champions would be something like Klitchsko, Hopkins, Golovkin, Mayweather, Vazquez, Donaire, That is a pretty strong list right there. I think it would improve the way we view todays era.
1 title per division...boxing would still be a power sport and held in higher regard, gone are the days where fights would stop a nation and the winner would get a parade, lional rose beating fighting Harada in japan when he came back to australia people lined the streets 100,000 people..shame the sport has been watered down so bad.
