Default What is the answer for boxing?

I've been reading the Mayweather/De La Hoya thread and also the Mayweather/UFC thread...and I just watched Cinderella Man again tonight, and after the fight last night...I'm in a boxing mood.

It pains me what a joke it's become (so many different divisions and belts, everything's some kind of "title fight" but none of them matter for anything, the heavyweight division has 50293959430940243592435023 champions and nobody can name any of them, etc.).

Someone who is knowledgeable about boxing (not a casual fan like me)...what is the answer? And what is stopping that from happening? Certainly boxing realizes it has major issues that are keeping it from being anywhere near the entertainment draw it was in decades and eras past. Why aren't they doing anything about it? I miss heavyweight title fights that meant something because they had history and legacy attached to them. And I'd think the heavyweight division still drives the sport.

Blah, blah...what gives?
