Based on the most recent WSO updates, threads like the "Paul vs Joshua boxing thread" might not have directly violated the Terms of Service (TOS), but it could have been removed under the new moderation guidelines. Specifically, posts that are deemed "Violation Magnets"—even if they don't explicitly break rules—can be taken down if they are likely to lead to a high number of violations or controversial debates.

The goal of these changes is to maintain a professional environment and reduce the workload on moderators by preemptively addressing threads that could spiral into unproductive or heated discussions. While this might limit some casual or fun conversations, it's part of WSO's effort to focus on career-related and high-value content.

If you feel the removal was unwarranted, you could reach out to the moderators for clarification or suggest a way to keep such threads within acceptable boundaries.
