KATHERINE FIGUEROA* In 2010, Sergio “Maravilla” Martinez was stripped from his WBC middleweight title belt that was then easily handed over to a boxing favorite. In 2015, two big promotional companies, Top Rank Inc. and Golden Boy Promotions, filed similar claims against manager and advisor Al Haymon accusing him of unfair and anticompetitive business practices. These incidents make one long-standing point clear: professional boxing’s current structure is an abyss of deception and corruption. Corruption is not only harmful to those intended to be harmed; corruptive practices also diminish the quality, creditability, and integrity of the sport. However, corruption in the sport of boxing is but a novel issue.

  • Name: Michael Watson Career Record: Click Nationality: United
    Name: Michael Watson Career Record: click Nationality: United Kingdom Birthplace: London, England Hometown: Islington, London, United Kingdom Born: 1965-03-15 Stance: Orthodox Height: 5′ 11″ Manager: Mickey Duff Michael Watson (born March 15, 1965) is a former boxer from England. Born in London, he is a resident of Islington. Although he did not become a world champion, many in England see him as a hero. Watson debuted professionally as a boxer on October 16, 1984, beating Winston Wray by a knockout in round four in London. The great majority of his fights were fought in London, and only one of his fights was outside England. Watson rose quickly though the WBO Middleweight ranks, building a record of 18 wins, 1 loss and one draw before venturing for the first and only time outside his native soil. During that 20 fight span, he beat such notables as Don Lee and Ricky Stackhouse. Then, he went to Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, where he would fight to a two round technical draw (tie) with Israel Cole. Three wins followed, and then, Watson faced future world champion Nigel Benn for the British Commonwealth Middleweight title. In what would turn out to be his biggest career win, he defeated Benn by knockout in round six, on May 21, 1989. On April 14, 1990, he received his first world title try, when he challenged WBA world champion Mike McCallum, losing by a twelve round decision. After three more wins, he was given a second world title try, on June 22, 1991, against WBO world champion Chris Eubank.
