Both Fenster and killersheep have this right. You can't do anything about the bullshit titles/organisations system in boxing. It would be ideal to have one single body and a commissioner of the sport like baseball and American football have, but those sports can have them because they have established franchises (teams) which are guaranteed to earn a certain level of revenue every season. There aren't any franchises in boxing, only individual prospects who may or may not turn out to be worth any investment by promoters. And promoters naturally want to protect their investments as much as they can, as is human nature. So we have the system we have.
