Money basically. Boxing organizations charge sanctioning fees for bouts so the bout will be recognized by the boxing organization. The more boxing matches a boxing organization sanctions the more money they get.Originally Posted by got S0LED out
I'm not a big boxing expert, but why do they have different boxing organizations?
Championship matches usually make the most money for boxing organizations, especially if the champions are popular. The organization(s) that controls the champion and champions get money from said champion(s) and their fights from sanctioning fees.
In addition, boxing organizations exist to create rivalries and exist to make more money from title unification fights (where one boxing organization's champion faces another boxing organization's champion in the same weight division).
