We have bad decisions... Judges tampering with score cards...

Fighters not making weights in big PPV events...

and I'm not even going to talk about what is wrong with the heavyweight division and Don King...
It all comes down to bodies and promoters trying to keep as much of the pie as they can...

all these bullshit bodys need to go... how exactly was Hopkins/Taylors... unified, undisputed title shattered and left on the floor for the scroungers to pick up? Outside of the ring...

I've lost interest... after Wright-Taylor, Maywether - Judah and all the other no shows and mismatches of this year, I really can't be bothered with watching boxing any more... lookis like its back to just competing for me until something can be done to sort this shit out (ie: nothing, never).

Tell me to get down off my soapbox... but boxing used to be a majority sport... it used to mean something to the public... Now if you want news on boxing... you check specialist press... two fighters fought to be crown undisputed middle weight king or the world... I didn't see one preveiw or right up in any British newspaper...

you wonder why?
The thing is,and I don't mean to sound condasending here but hasn't boxing always been like this? Ie corrupt organisations,power figures,dodgy decisions etc etc? I mean I may not have been a fan for long but it does seem that this kind of shat happens alot anyway.I personally can see where you are coming from but there are also lots of great fights that occur that don't have al the above mentioned factors.Watch the flyweights,feather weights etc1!! Heck,you don't want dodgy decisions,watch Antonio Margarito,the fight won't go to the cards because he'll win by KO ergo no contraversy!
Seriously,you're probably really mad now but wait until Hatton fights or until the next big fight and you'll be back!!
