[QUOTE="VegasMichael, post: 17033842, member: 105950"] Like you said the boxing organizations are just sanctioning bodies. Boxers sign contracts with promoters. Don King, Top Rank, Golden Boy, etc. The promoters strike deals with the sanctioning bodies. That's why there is co-promotion among sanctioning bodies where a WBC champ can fight a WBA champ provided each sanctioning body gives permission. A champ can even hold all four belts. WBC, WBA, WBO, IBF. A sanctioning body can refuse to rank you too. Tyson Fury vacated three of his belts and now the WBA, WBO and IBF don't even have him in their rankings. The UFC fighters don't sign contracts with promoters they sign contracts with the UFC. The UFC controls everything. A UFC fighter can only fight other UFC fighters. A UFC fighter can't fight a Bellator fighter. From what I've read over the years some UFC fighters have managers but others don't. Most fighters sign a four or six fight contract which of course can be terminated by the UFC at any time. [/QUOTE]
