When did the new age boxing fans start

Now i doubt i will be able to make the point im trying to make but when did boxing fans become all about the laughs and the politics instead of the sport? It seems like people cant even have a real conversation about the sport of boxing anymore and its almost turned into nothing but politics. Whether its fighters. promotions, networks, fighting style i mean there are so many lines drawn in the sand. When did everything become such a war? I guess it started with mayweather manny which turned into top rank vs gbp but man this is getting ridiculous at this point. Its like if there is a fight on pbc people cant even have an opinion on the fight its always about the politics of it all and whether u like al haymon or not. The same goes with top rank, main events etc. I mean who gives a **** about al haymon or bob arum. Then you got guys who cant even have a real conversation and all they care about is the lulz and they say the same 2 liner about mayweather or pacquiao no matter what the subject is. Sorry but no ones cares about your alter ego online persona lol. I guess at the end of the day I wish we as fans could get past all these politics and stick together and just get back to the beautiful sport we love. Obviously people are always going to like and dislike certain fighters but I just think fans are just as at fault as the promoters for all the politics. When we take sides on every little subject all the way down to if we agree on what brand of gloves the fighters are wearing we make it possible for these promoters and networks to keep up the same politics and the same song and dance. What happened to just wanting to see fights? Now people get into the money of it all as tho we really give a **** about that stuff we just want certain fights. Now I doubt the point im trying to make has come across the right way that I intended but at the end of the day I just wish we could get back to being fans of the sport and not fans of promotions and networks. It really has started to look like democrats vs republicans in this sport
