Before boxing, i played a lot of football and basketball and was pretty good at it.
Until one day i surfed through my television, and stopped at TSN, where
boxing was on, so i watched it, "Shane Mosley vs Luis Collazo" was my very
first boxing match that i saw. And now boxing is my favourite sport. I have
to say boxing changed my life, like no ordinary sport. I eat healthy, i have more faith in my religion, i'm doing good at school, I listen to my parents, and I'm more disciplined. Heck i'm the only one at the age of 15 who gets his ass up in the morning and jogs (in my community).
Well i just wanted to know what the very first boxing match you saw.
Thank You :boxing:
cos in my country boxing is a sport that almost nobody cares about. on the sport news they never put articles about boxing =P
but thanks to final round 2, rocky and an anime about boxing i started to get interested in it and i loved it xD.
of course i have watched rocky years ago, but it was a long time since ive seen rocky and they showed all of them on the cable at the beggining of the year xD....
btw i think it has been a great year...i have enjoyed a lot of fights :boxing: , and theres still more to come
OK... The First Person I Know Who Started Watching Boxing Because Of A Cartoon... Strange.... But It's Good 2 Know Boxing Is Still Attracting New Fans
Why'd You Start?

i saw many ali fights when i was a kid but i hardly remeber them. the fight that i saw that got me into boxing as a kid was larry holmes vs. randall tex cobb.
The first match I ever say was Ali vs Foreman, on replay, when I was about 5 years old, I can still remember that vividly.
That girl looks fake ....
ElCampeon07 Iron Mike Tyson's Comeback Fight Versus Peter McNeely Was The 1st Fight I Saw When I Was Real Young...... My Father Brought Me Up On Boxing....Both Fighting and Watching..... Ya'll Ni99as Seem 2 Have Just Started Watching Boxing In The Last 2 or 3 Years
Yeah a lot more new fans then I thought but oh well there are still a lot of members here that have seen more then some of us ever will.
Either way it's good to see that new fans are still popping up and new fans do tend to see things that others sometimes over look in most sports, so they can still add a lot to convo on here.
I tried watching anything with Tyson on it when I was a kid.. didn't have enough money to buy all of his paperviews so saw the replay of the fight on HBO like a week later. But my very first live broadcast fight I watched was Nunn vs Kalamba which got me hooked for life. Still one of my favorite KO's to watch.

The first fight I remember was Tyson-Spinks... I was 4, my dad is a big fight fan... I remember crying when Douglas KTFO Tyson... and Fan-Man at Holyfield-Bowe II and predicted Moorer's win againgst Evander!
I don't remember the first one but I do remember watching one of the Leonard Vs Duran fights with my mom and dad when I was very young.
I also remember watching some of Tyson's early fights.
well im only 16...
but tha first fight i remeber was either whitaker vs de la hoya, or de la hoya vs chavez... i watched both but 4get wat comes first.
only 16 n been watching/loving tha sport for 11 years deep!
I dont remember the first being that it prob was not a ppv but first big fight I remember watching was Duran Vinny Paz 1. Was 12 then so I know I was watching before then but dont remember much. My dad was big into boxing as was my grandpa who ordered pretty much all the PPVs back when satellite TV first came out.
