This fight is going to be fun. No drama build up. Just two undisputed champs going at it. Can’t wait.

The picture of Canelo and Charlo holding all of those belts, it really highlights how much better the sport would be if a couple of those sanctioning bodies were to disappear. If we could get it down to 2 bodies rather than 4 it would be such an improvement. Whats perverse is that the older and more history the sanctioning body has the more corrupt and useless it is. Out of the 4 at least the IBF and WBO aren't as bad for thinking of new ways to create more world champions in each division and they also are more likely to re-match dodgy decisions.

Yea i just look at he match ups on the cards as they come out and seem to ignore the bodies laying in the street. So much ugly in boxing i am selective in what part of it agitates me but i know what you are pointing at.........

Yeah me too, my level of interest is always fairly high on the up and comers or next generation and of course its at its highest when we do get meaningful fights between the very best like say Crawford vs Spence. I think most fans dream of seeing an end to some of the sanctioning bodies because they prevent many more meaningful match ups. The less titles the more competition there is to win them, the more titles the more diluted it is and the easier it is to win. People who love the sport just hate what they know is bad for the long term health of the sport. Take care.

yea boxing is a screwy sport from time to time what saves it is when you see a good match up and a skilled meaningful nasty fight breaks out. Hard to explain but you know it when you watch it, something about two fighters laying it all on the line inside the ring. That is what most of us look for in fight cards. It dont happen on every fight card but when it does it makes me forget all they hype promo and lies and pure garbage that gets hawked as something special in boxing. Enjoy the fights HW should be showing up next week could be interesting a lot more interesting then the garbage that Josh v Hellboy got put out last week................Two cards of HW's could be interesting.
