It's quite beautiful to be honest. There are so many fighters to focus on. The Future is bright.
Other than Spoon23, it sounds like everyone else has moved on. He can't get over the fact Mayweather spanked his Boyfriend.
This era is even worse, nobody's willing to fight one another. Everybody seen the money Floyd & Manny made and they automatically think they're entitled to it.
Damn right! All we need is for Canelo to be gone and then we'll have no more ppv to worry about.
The boxing world has been so much better without the divas.
Somewhat, but it doesn't really feel like a new era just yet beause I fully expect Floyd to return and Arum's already discussing the return of the Pacman this Fall.
Everyone seems focused on retiring early. Maidana has retired. Matthysse is following suit. Thurman, Porter are now one-fight-a-year fighters. Garcia and Broner are following suit. Quillin had his first loss and seemed to have disappeared. Lara and Andrade are not talking about fighting each other. We'll probably be having more Wilder/Arreola type of fights on days to come.
At least Manny and Floyd fought actual threats, not Amir Khan at 155
The fanboy wars still live on through Ward vs GGG and PBC vs HBO
The welterweight division has regressed dramatically since the two elite fighters retired. This has opened up a lot of options for others to be the marquee division, which is exciting. However, none really stand out atm... light heavyweight being a clear front runner
What post May/Paq era? They still can't stop making threads about them. A lot of fans want to focus on current top fighters fighting each other. Brook vs Garcia didn't get made. Thurman vs Garcia didn't get made. Jacobs is fighting Mora.
Pretty much the same as it's been since no one thinks either are gonna stay gone. Only difference is a little less Floyd-Manny talk and more GGG|Alvarez|Ward talk.
We still have guys like Garcia holding out on fighting waiting for Floyd.
Not yet we still need a few years to transition over from the mayweather my health comes first , pay me more to fight has beens , belts dont mean sht , im a rich coward, fck the fans era boxing is at a all time low because of one boxer and his tranny manager. Boxers now believe a 0 on there records makes them greater than a boxer with a loss and try to avoid all risk.
I bet if Wilder was fighting Contenders rather than bums and winning people would be saying Mayweather who
Wilder vs Fury is next. And Wilder will knock him out cold.
I'm loving the sport, sans those ancient bastards. It want be long before Egis reigns supreme over their former divison, making them afraid to leave their retirement homes.
The low point in this forum's history had to be when when a war erupted over Manny's shoe vs Floyd's shoe and which shoe everyone would be buying.
They were at each other's throats making shoe polls with rigged wording and voting with alts.
