Has Boxing become 75% buisness and 25% sport?

OK so what do you want,fighters just to show up and fight each other with no contracts. There were waaaaaay more politics before the 70's rather then after. The only reason we hear so much about the stuff you mentioned is because we are here on a Wednesday where there are no fights, all we have to talk about is some of the business stuff you mentioned.

This is a bit ridiculous imo.

I didn't say it was bad or wrong, just inevitable.

Was talking about just the original question. It's 75% business because they only fight on 25% of the days in a week. I guess I just don't get the question.

If I understand correctly, and holmcall please correct me if I'm wrong........ He is saying there is a very small pool of fighters that control a majority of what happens in boxing, a case of the rich staying rich.

Yep, that plus lack of activity.
