how opponents are chosen

Opponents for boxing matches are chosen many different ways. On the professional level, fight promoters will seek favorable matchups for their up and coming prospects, opponents who either have a name value but are washed up, or opponents that have a style that will be easy for their fighter to defeat. Also, the promoter of the fighter in the main event will usually stock the card with other fighters from within his stable, to showcase them at the same event.
