By Ben James: Sorry I have not published any articles recently, I was in a motorbike accident on Tuesday and have just got out of surgery / hospital and this subject I am writing about has been on my mind all week. Please be forgiving if my writing is full of typos or mistakes as I am typing with one hand on some very strong pain killers.

Anyway back to business. The heavyweight title fight last weekend was a complete joke, it went almost exactly as I predicted it would in my prediction article a few weeks ago (as did the pacman fight, 2 predictions out of 2 both spot on so far).

The only mistake I made was giving Audley Harrison too much credit! I knew he would freeze up when Hayes bombs started to fly but I thought he would put in more of an effort to actually throw some punches beforehand. It appears Harrison only turns up to fight against people he is 99% sure he can beat, the atmosphere of the whole event got to him as well. The man is mentally weak and defiantly deluded.

Given Hayes promise to retire at his 31st birthday next year I can must criticize him heavily for wasting precious time and peoples hard earned money for choosing to fight Harrison in the first place, you have really annoyed a lot of people and done great damage to the sport of boxing for what can only be described as the benefit of your ego and greed, you owe the public a proper fight, but no doubt you will opt to fight your mandatory to keep your title no real fan gives a damn about.

It is the mandatory challengers that have been on my mind this week. The governing bodies are the ones preventing the best fights happening. Look at all the losers who have been mandatory challengers in recent years, the worse example been John Ruiz. Why the hell would the WBA make that old has-been the number one contender for their title? What is stopping them making one of Klitschko brothers the number one contender?

Or why not make Haye the number one contender for one of the brothers belts? Force these fights to happen! Give them no choice or chance to milk the public even if it is in your financial benefit.

The same thoughts can be applied to every other division in the sport, just look at how many pointless title defences have happened in the past 20 years.

Governing bodies have the power to make most fights the public want to see a reality, but not all of them. Mayweather / Pacman fight been a great example of this. Mayweather no longer cares about world titles or paying governing bodies millions of dollars to let him defend said titles.

I hope you enjoyed reading this article and I look forward to hearing your thoughts and comments.
