Zab "The Mouth" Judah finally snaps at a fight, punching the referee in the groin and swinging wildly at anyone who tries to calm him down. Police are called into the melee, and Judah is arrested. Last seen fighting in the New York State Penal System boxing tournaments, and getting his from a 350-pound serial rapist called "Bubba."
The heavyweight division collapses in a heap, with all fights being degraded to 4 rounds apiece. Instead of PPV, people are now being given credits toward PPV fights in other divisions if they'll just tune in to a heavyweight match. Some "champions" go get regular jobs, some try to lose weight to make lightheavyweight, and yet others get on the sauce.
Larry Merchant is on the verge of getting fired from HBO, for his incessant ramblings on Shakespeare, the moon, Plato, and anything but boxing. Harold Lederman gets told to get a real job, and Oscar de la Hoya decides to join the team as fight commentator.
Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. pushes his record to 30-0 after a thorough destruction of Joe Blow (0-1) by 1st round KO, after Joe was talked into leaving his front row seat for $50 and validated parking.
Ricky Hatton loses for the first time in his career (by DQ), as the referee in his fight in Las Vegas finally stops the fight after repeated warnings for mauling, clinching, kneeing, headbutting, wrestling, etc, etc, etc. Hatton's camp claims the result would've been different back in the U.K.
