Chris Algieri: Rather Than a Sport, Boxing Has Been Transformed Into Entertainment

All sports is entertainment. Except in boxing you can accept or reject who fans or governing bodies want you to fight. I don't like tennis, especially men's. I see too much arrogance in that sport when I feel it should just be a hobby played in private courts. Lucky for them they make money just playing and having fun.

Lol itâs been entertainment since its inception. Boxing has always been entertainment by the poor/minority to make money. Back then that group was Italians, Irish, Jewish. It evolved into a sport and all the skill mumbo jumbo. In a baseball game, a real sport, it can be 0-0, no hits, in the bottom of the 12th inning and fans wonât boo. Thatâs a sport. In boxing, if punches arenât scoring or if the fighters stare at eachother for even 5 seconds, fans boo. Even if the boxers are showing impressive footwork skills and evasion of punches. Fans will boo. Thatâs because at its core boxing wasnât about skills, it evolved into that and became a sport. Boxing was about entertainment and toughness. With gambling thrown in there since its inception. âI got $2 dollars on mustache!â - Ballers from the 1800s wagering on a fist fight with rules miserable wittle wee wee racist maggot boring *** baseball has been dead for years.:boxing:

Depends on the fighter, Take Usyk, old skool, his comical personality covers over the fact he's a real hard man & wants to face the best continuously & has. Take Aj, his own words coming up "i want to be the first billionaire boxer" & tried to micro manage his career, low risk high reward, avoided his 2 piers with money to instead box over the hill 38-41 year olds & cans until Usyk. Now Turkish has a new toy loosing 10s of millions every card, it makes no sense but at least they're fighting.
