Is pro boxing ruined now by the cancellation match between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr?
Pro boxing is constantly trying to ruin itself. It is the most amateur of all pro sports, there are too many governing bodies and too much dispute over who is the champ etc.
In football you win the world cup = you are the world champ.
In boxing you win a world belt = you are in the same position as (at least )another 3 guys in your division and people will dispute who is best.
I think this (Pac-Mayweather)could have a benefitial effect on boxing as if this doesnt go ahead promoters will not be forgiven for not making it happen and the boxers alternative fights wouldnt be so popular.Boxing could then become more about sport and matchups than tv eventsmade to fleece money out of the publics pockets.
