Same as this is the gambling, more key players are involved with match fixing even after getting huge sum of money after every match winning/losing. Why certain sportsmen have such greed towards money when people are starving to have a single meal on a day.
The answer is simple; it's because the sports business generates so much revenue than expected. This expanding growth open the eyes of greedy persons who should be ready to shit in order to get a portion from that money. I think it's a little bit over to compare thi situation with the situation of poor people starving; sports become useless if we consider poorness as priority to fight against without to remember that the business of sports itself is responsible for the life of millions of people who work on it.

people who are financially capable then they would be using up their finances to earn more money even if its means on corrupting something.
That's how greedy people, those who are already rich will get richer and while the poor will continue to struggle and will become poorer. There's no humanity for them anymore, all they aim is to make money even if they will commit a crime, and they are not afraid of committing a crime as they know they are powerful enough that they can get away when they get caught. people who are financially capable then they would be using up their finances to earn more money even if its means on corrupting something.
Sports are created for competition, but once the betting came in, speculators already starts to doubt the reputation of the sports.
Corruption now seems to have become a cultural culture for politicians and state officials, and in my opinion excessive consumptive lifestyle makes officials corrupt without thinking a lot of people they are harming, even in my country, corruption has occurred in various state authorities including sports nowadays, it can be said that corruption is like a disease, the stage of corruption develops steadily from acute to chronic, from benign to malignant

With due respect, political manifestos usually have many promises, lots of wishful thinking and plenty of stuff that politicians hope that people forget when it comes to putting it in practice. Still, it is interesting that there is an specific point on corruption in sports and I would not be inclined to think that they are pointing to betting, but rather to a more general objective of reducing money laundering and bad practice in general. Governments rarely care about honesty in betting other than basic regulations.
Corruption can happen anywhere, it's just that it's prevalent in politics but that doesn't mean that it can't happen in another aspect of life, and corruption is a blanket term so it's covering a lot of stuff like stealing, killing for power and power tripping and abuse. Sports isn't an exception, people in the higher ups when they get too much power for them to handle, they get too corrupted by it.We can focus on the corruption in sports or what we called sports rigging.
This is not new, though not many have been convicted on this crime, based on the speculation, it's happening in the small or big leagues in any sports.
One of the most popular scandals in the past is the NBA refs rigging the game because he was betting on the game.
Tim Donaghy, is it familiar?

Corruption in the sport does not usually involve politicians, in the theory of game-fixing that I read, mostly involve people are those who are running the league as they are in control of everything when someone has a league, he creates the rules and he influences the implementation of the rules.
True! More on internal people who completely understand how the rules were being implemented.
It's no brainier that this kind of people are aware of how to influence other people who are also involved in certain sports,
they are dealing behind and with the help of huge amount of offers it can easily be done.
We do hear lots of rumors about game fixing but up to date there are less that being executed, only means that corruptions inside the sport business are highly controlled and hard to stop..
I don't think this is just only a rumor but probably this becomes an issue right now and that has been obvious.
Corrruption is everywhere and to those who do sit up on the high ranking or the top of the chain will always have that kind of motive since they do really have the position and also with other

Corruption isn't a business.
Well, it might be already the business treatment for those corrupt people that are inside the sports org or any agency where they belong.
There are those people that makes it as a business already and they've became used to it with how much money they can make from it.

And getting out of the situation will downgrade their lifestyle, so, they choose to keep what they are doing despite of being unacceptable in the society. They can't let go because they may not sustain their lifestyle by doing so. So in short, it is greed in play here. And I believe, we can't really avoid this in any government agency, so sports organization or government agency is not excluded from this practice.
They've been used to that lifestyle as if it's already part of their life to corrupt things including the sports.
But if they will be caught and get arrested, for sure that they will regret that they've done it. They don't realize what they do is bad because they're experiencing it with lavish life through corruption but it will come to an end.

Come think about it, who does not want money? Who does not want power? Well I think this corruption issues with sports has been with us for such a long time now. -snip-
Money works all the time, and it's true that in every places corruptions are present not only with the government but there are many institutions where corruptions are dominating.
They actually have had much money, but once they can get higher money again, they will do. How much they have, if they have been involved in any corruption cycle, they will not be able to be out from that cycle. They want higher and higher money again. Yeah, to be true, they may think money is everything.
And how do you imagine these cash flows? Would even the average athlete (who clearly does not need money like the average person) risk his career to make some extra money? For some reason it seems irrational to me. Even having received this dirty money, you still need to somehow legalize it ... in general, more trouble and risks than profit.
A club or institutions consist of many people, various people with various personality, desires, and power. Here in the world of Sport and Club, we not only talk about athletes themselves but the unity of the people in it.When there is a gap where they can use corruption, they will not work alone. And of course, they will play neatly, especially if this has happened many times and becomes like a cycle of corruption in the club or the sports institution.
Even if someone knows this, he could not dare to report it, more - more they did not have greater power. Or precisely they will join again to enjoy the money from the corruption.
They usually won't play openly. The budget markup is one of the ways that is most often used for this corruption. And much more.
For athletes themselves, I did not accuse, but not all athletes have a good payment, and when they are tempted by the money that can be produced, then they can take it.

you can see all types of corruption even in sports. i guess, they are not special not to be excluded with this long running prob of humanity. and sadly to say, we can't avoid such circumstances from happening as it is like innate human behaviour.
even in selection of players, there will always be something that will come up as unfair to some of them. i guess, we just need to accept such fact but if you are aggrieved of the situation and directly involved, you can always seek justice if you want. but such ordeal will be long and tiresome process. a reality check that we all need to admit.

Corrupt politicians usually do that and they will create a lot of problems if there are more corrupt politicians running the country than the good ones, especially if most of them are holding a higher position in the government.

The main reason why corruption happens in sports is the big money stake in it, make sports betting illegal and there will be no more corruption. The sports betting industry as reported is a billion-dollar industry, with that huge money, I think greedy people will be interested in taking their share, and that is using their influence for their personal benefit.
I think anything that involves money is prone to corruption, there is big money in the gambling industry that can make them become rich when they know how to play with it. Everywhere there are too many greedy people that they think that sometimes manipulating by their own power will give them huge benefits and that is why we can't deny that there is corruption even in gambling because this is a common practice from our political people. Political power plus huge money can manipulate and create corruption not even in gambling.
That would be easier for them to manipulate the sport if they have politicians behind them, it would add more confidence on the crooks as they know if they get caught, some powerful politician will protect them if we live in that kind of world, it's not only sports that are messed up, even the future of our children and the country as we whole.

Corruption is the easiest way that they know to get richer which is too unfair especially to hardworking athletes and people who involve in sports. However, there are still trustworthy people who work fairly. We can't stop corruption but let's hope that more honest people in the world of sports would exist.
It's always been corruption that they do when there's big money involved. There really is unfairness in many things and these corrupt people don't think of being fair with others.That's why in many things including in sports, they tend to corrupt anything that they can because it is easy for them to do.
Corruptions dictate many things as there is a huge amount of money that involves,
It's hard to terminate this business since there are still many people who are willingly embracing this system, not just for sports but in vast majorities, corruption is present.
I would like to believe from the post above you that there are still honest people who want fairness in their business, while others
continue to entertain corruption. let's wish for more people to realize and stop this dishonesty.

Though this doesn't look like a big crime as no life was taken, it should be treated the same since it's stealing the real entertainment of what the fans deserved and the fans made this league run profitably because of their support.
