In recent years the panorama in boxing has changed drastically, this is due to social networks and the magnitude of these, which can reach around the entire planet Earth, that is why most boxers who are in the elite or the who claim to be within this select group, are afraid or terrified of losing their undefeated boxing, this is the reason why sometimes fights that would be spectacular for everyone are not achieved.
And most "elite" fighters never unify a division, sometimes they keep one, two or even three titles, but they never face an opponent who is as strong as him in that same division; and in the interviews they have, they look down on the rival and refuse to fight or go up the division, and that is reflected in the show, which sometimes leaves much to be desired.
Most promoters are responsible for sometimes making the fighter believe that they have no rivals in their division, or that they are above all the rest, that is part of a bubble that is inflated until at one point that bubble It explodes, and that makes the promoter look for another "prospect", leaving the boxer and his sports career, which usually stagnates, to their fate.
It has been seen that many boxing prospects start to rise very quickly, but the decline is also very fast. And sometimes it is so dizzying that most of them stay on the road, because when fame and money start to come, the boxer gets carried away by paths that are very bad, sometimes the promoter and the manager influence so that Follow this path, which is not good for the boxer, but it leaves them an economic benefit. Television is another key factor in this strategy, since together with the promoters and managers of the boxers, they look for the most famous or the one with the greatest trend on the networks.
This causes the spectacle to decrease in terms of the quality of the opponents and this is reflected when they go up to fight, the most recent case was Canelo vs Yildirim, which only lasted three rounds and the WBC through its president Mauricio Sulaiman, had Said previously that it was the mandatory and it was a very good fight. They are taking boxer Ryan García with that same model, his last fight was 11 months ago, at the beginning of January, against Luke Campbell, with a victory by knockout in round seven, and then he had to fight Javier. drone ”Fortuna, but he declined that fight arguing some problems, and the one who entered the contest was Jojo Diaz, who faced Fortuna and beat him and then faced Devin Haney for the regular WBC lightweight title.
