How can anybody really enjoy boxing these days?

... in 2019, there were enough very good fights at the top level... ... in 2019, we had Manny vs Thurman, Canelo vs Jacobs, Spence vs. Porter, Williams vs. Hurd, Taylor vs. Prograis, Beterbiev vs Gvozdyk, GGG vs Derevyanchenko, Inoue vs. Donaire, Ruiz vs Joshua 2, a.s.o.

I agree the sport is definitely dying, look at the ticket sells and Ratings, Even Bobs is thinking about moving his shows worldwide away from the US, look at how many networks you have to go through to find your favorite fighters only to see him fight a no name. I love the sport, It'll always be my favorite sport, but its in a very trash state at the moment.Its sad to think boxing wasnt what it was.I feel its shows that the Saudis want to put on eg wanting the winner of Fury/Wilder to face Joshua out in Saudi in their primes that gets the casual/general sports fan interested and goes to what boxing should be the best fighting the best. Credit to the Saudis for trying to put on a mega boxing event.They have the money to do it and Iam glad they feel the allure of boxing which deep down no other sport can truly harness .Hence the best fighters fighting each other.No equipment relatively speaking just man on man/soul on soul in survival of the fittest.

The so-called best fighters don't fight eachother. There's like 500 belts floating around that diminishes the value of what a champion should be. The overall skill level of fighters are absolutely terrible compared to old timers. Every fighter is trying to be the next floyd mayweather and is a diva *****. Most boxers at least the top level ones are so technical now and barely brawl it out. The refs dont allow inside fighting. It's a ****ing ****show, ufc is so much better LMAO AT U GUYS.Because boxing still is the oldest /truest sport there is despite money/politics diluting it.

All justified criticisms. But it's still a great sport to watch. If you're not happy with the Fury/Wilder undercard then don't buy the PPV. That's the language you need to talk. The only thing they'll understand. And UFC is garbage for plebs.

Years ago I'd stay home over going out just so that I could watch boxing. I'd get beers, snacks whatever and enjoy the telecast and the fights. It was all an experience, specially HBO. Now, I don't care to miss a fight, I go out and just follow the fight on twitter.

Funny I was just telling my father how ****ty boxing is compare to the 80s and 90s . Everything you mentioned is spot on and in 2 or 3 years it will be dead gone . HBO saw the writing on the wall great move to get out !!

Pains me to agree with this. Ufc is absolutely killing it.. Putting on stacked cards! Fury wilder is the biggest fight of the year.. What sort of ****ty supporting bouts are we going to get for our money?

Then ****kk off you racist cunnt. And stop posting. i take what i can get... being mexican in jpa. is not easy...stay storng strong... bazooka limon was one of my fav groiwing up.. brown pwoer. power.

agreed I still love watching the sport but it's true. Fighters fight 2-3 times a year if that and seldom fight top opposition.

You said all of that to say what exactly? Why people still watch boxing? Despite how you may feel boxing is still very much alive you don't have to make a thread criticizing others on what they choose to watch.
