PACQUIAO VS MARQUEZ 4 SHOWS WHATS WRONG WITH BOXING
    The boxing world has been upside down in the last week after mega star Manny Pacquiao lost a very controversial  decision to Timothy Bradley. Now I am not gonna talk about weather or not I think Pacuiao won or in how many rounds in his last fight, but I am gonna talk about the events after the fight that show why boxing is such a mess. After this decision went down Bob Arum said that he dosent want to make a rematch for this fight because he feels fans wouldn't wanna watch a second fight because the decision. Which maybe be true, but instead of making the fight people want they make a fight we have seen three times before and end ended controversy three times before.
    Today it was announced that Manny Pacquiao will face Juan Manuel Marquez for a forth time. Which once again showed boxing dosent care about the fans unlike other sports. The fight we all want to see is Pacuiao vs Floyd Mayweather. A fight that can save boxing and bring in big money that no other fight in the world can bring it. So what  dose Bob Arum do? Books this fight which will get less interest then the Bradley fight. Even though the first three fights were great fights none wants to see this again.
   Boxing is so  slefish that they dont care about the fans only themselves and getting paid. The proof is shown in the fact that we havent see Mayweather vs Pacuiao. Blame who you want for this fight not happening the fact that it hasnt shown that boxing is selfish. People fighting over millions dollars to put on a fight that everyone wants to see is just sicking.
   I really think people should not order another boxing fight till Floyd and Manny finally fight. Fight organizations like the UFC do anything they could to put the fights that the fans want on.  Which is a big reason why boxing is on the decline and MMA is on the rise. Fighter and promoters looking out for the fans that pay there hard earn money to watch a fight and not themselves.
