If fans better understood why the bodies exist and how they operate and if the media covered them honestly, before long you would only have one or two recognized bodies (most likely the WBC and IBF).
Even if we could just go back to three bodies, it would be a huge improvement for the sport. But two is ideal.
I know fans say ONE CHAMPION! ONE CHAMPION! But it's not realistic. There's never been one champion in the history of boxing, going all the way back to IBU, NYSAC, NBA, etc.
The best chance for "one champion" was actually five champions. Indivudal WBC, WBA, IBF and WBO champions, with the four organizations agreeing to NEVER refer to their champions as world champion and then a separate undisputed world champion agreed upon by all four bodies. It sucks that the WBO wouldn't do it.

Originally posted by Afi23 View PostAccording to Dan Rafael
Purses for the Showtime card on Saturday night at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York:
Deontay Wilder $1.4 million
Bermane Stiverne $506,250
Shawn Porter $500k
Adrian Granados $200k
Sergei Lipinets $75k
Akihiro Kondo $15k
Dominic Breazeale $250k
Eric Molina $90k.
And reading Dan's twitter timeline, it appears as if Stiverne won't get the step aside money:
Don king probably takes 30%
That’s 200k left...trainer, cutman,travel,food,camp expenses etc prob 100k left after everything... that was a serious beating for 100k.

Originally posted by WBC WBA IBF View PostRing ****zine, unfortunately, was purchased by Oscar De La Hoya. Ever since, he has interfered with the ratings, causing all of the reputable journalists to quit the ****zine. Ring has broken their rules whenever it benefited an HBO fighter or harmed a Showtime fighter. Ring has changed their rules whenever it benefited an HBO fighter or harmed a Showtime fighter. At this point, Ring is less credible than the WBU.
