A dilemma for fans

Having read numerous comments on this forum I find it funny that people both complain about boxing not getting enough mainstream attention, but then also complain when a fighter does get mainstream attention and draws 'casuals'. What do people really want? who says that?

If you haven't noticed there is a lot of casuals on here who are fans of a couple of fighters and **** on everyone else.

The casuals are a necessary entity because they keep boxing relevant. A bulk of PPV purchases are made by casuals. The frustration is when casual fans, sportswriters, bloggers, and such become the voice of boxing and eat up the hype behind certain fighters. They become fan-boys and can't appreciate the fighters who have a few losses on their record or the history of the sport and the greats who fought in previous eras.

No one complains about a fighter drawing too many casuals. They may bring up the fact that certain fanbases are obnoxious because they're full of casuals. That happens. I love Pac but at the height of his popularity, this place was full of people who knew nothing about boxing, they were just hardcore Pac fans. I'm all for casuals coming and hanging out but when they argue like rabid dogs about shyt that they're clueless on, that's annoying. No one wants to see fewer casual fans though.

Casuals are idiots who think of boxing as a combat sport where somebody gets hurt or knocked out. Real, hardcore fans are into deep skills where a guy doesn't get hit, even if he doesn't ever show effective aggression against his opponent. Grappling and head butting. Now that's boxing!

Ideally boxing needs greater mainstream exposure to draw more casuals, and then over time these casuals become discerning fans who demand the best fights. When 99% of the fan base are casuals, then Arum can sell them crap like Pacquiao/Horn PPV. If half of the viewership were educated fans, however, that kind of garbage wouldn't fly.

I think the real dilemma is us deciding whether or not we should buy fake diplomas, Chinese made council belts, and passports!!! All hell is breaking loose I say!! Need more Jubei and Freedom counterfeit racist alts! Cool story
