QUOTE (bnoles4life @ May 25 2012, 07:25 PM) Good post, Cheesey!!!! That's exactly the direction I was going, though admittedly, FIFA didn't come to mind. Boxing, particularly in the U.S., would operate under ONE governing body, but with a component in each state (or at least one that desires one...I mean, not many fights in Montana). Oh yeah......it ain't easy..... Thanks man. .....bein' Cheesey. This post has been edited by Cheesey1: Jun 1 2012, 11:59 AM |

Don't know if this has been said, but a boxing union as well as a boxing commissioner like Roger Goodell (or even better...Roger Goodell) would make that shit turn quick.

Danny....while it hasn't been put in those exact terms, but many of us agree having ONE central figure (read: board, body, etc.) would be a HUGE...no, GARGANTUAN step in the direction of reform. |

I think by this point, the only way to remove Promoters is if a single promoter monopolizes on its competition. Where a promoter gets to the point where hes controlling and managing almost all the fighters. The only other option I see is if the promoters join together, but I don't see that happening.

Roger Goodell for President! The Boxing President that is! That motherfucker doesn't care how talented you are or how much money you bring to the sport, he'll sit your ass down. Im sure he'd do a nasty number on these promoters, and bring some kind of stability.
