    Will you stop watching?? No more PPV's, no more HBO or showtime, no more ESPN, telefutura, etc, etc. That will fix the sport, are you all ready to jump in and make a commitment?
    This will actually hurt the sport more than fix it. Imagine all the honest people involved in the business who will lose out because of a mass boycott of boxing. You'd antagonize and punish more honest folks who makes a living out of boxing than the inept scum that should be the only target. I agree with your motive, but your method is just painfully indiscriminate.

    The answer to all this is simple Elect a NATIONAL boxing commission. Put Teddy Atlas at the helm. Make all officials accountable for their actions. End the corruption

    if PPV numbers went down because the undercards are shit and the decisions are not fair then something might get done.

    As for not watching on HBO and Showtime, not going to happen. I have HBO because of game of thrones, boardwalk empire, etc... and showtime because of dexter, homeland, weeds, etc.....

    I am not going to stop watching those shows so i will continue to have HBO and Showtime.

    As for buying PPVs. I try not to buy them. I have become an avid stream hunter. But there are only so many PPVs that i won't buy. I'm a box aholic. I have watched an internet stream of a fight card in nicaragua that looked like a middle school gym, just to get a chance to see roman gonzalez fight as the headliner.

    If you haven't seen Gonzalez fight you need to do so.

    So I can stream hunt and hit the Promoters in the nutz for only so long. I'm going to buy a decent amount of ppvs.

    I think this is a much better idea. I can't understand why GB wouldn't want to catch the Pacquiao gravy train though? GB must still have animosity for not being able to make the Pacquiao fight. Live Audience voting.
