Fixed Fights?
Boxing history is littered with bogus fights. Most famously during the 40s/50s, when USA boxing was controlled by the mob, fight fixing was rampant.
Everyone knows about LaMotta-Fox, Rocky Graziano, Sugar Ray Robinson was offered bribes on numerous occasions, Joe Louis gave up his title to create a false champ to earn money, before then you had Carnera-Sharkey and greats like Joe Gans blatantly throwing fights, and after that the Liston-Clay stuff, even Duran-Leonard 2 is questioned.
Clearly throwing fights these days would be far harder because of TV, internet, media etc, plus fighters have the advantage of fighting less but earn more. However, Emanuel Augustus blatantly pretended to be KO'd againt Allan Vester about 10 years ago.
Could this still be happening?
