Yeah I think a big part of the reason was warming up on the pads etc, getting a sweat on. Then going into the ring, waiting for 20 mins and totally cooling down.
And the older you get, the more that shyt matters.
Spot on. GGG didn't want to stay in the ring for like 20min. Dude wants to fight in the ring not listening to anthems for 20mins like

Yeah it’s awful right? Immigrants trying to make a better life for themselves and their children.
Get off your high horse. If your surname is any indication of your heritage, at some point one of your ancestors immigrated over and gifted you the privilege to become an American. Unfortunately for them they’re sacrifices were wasted on you
Now now if someone is an illegal immigrant, they're scumbags who are screwing over those who come over legally. America is a country of immigrants though, no reason to complain about the legal immigrants coming in.

Good post. Green K.
Equal and fair opportunity for all.
Pretty much just here to milk us Americans for our money

All national anthems should be abolished in boxing...I hate sitting through them. The worst is having to listen to the American anthem when neither fighter is American, but the fight is in the US.
Sorry, I dont know Haymon but every poster here knows you're a douche bag
Don't bother responding to that prick and put him on ignore. Makes your experience much better.
if I remember right it was because instead of playing the anthems while the fighter were still in the dressing rooms (like they do 99% of the time), in this case they did the ring walks first and then spent 20 minutes screwing around with anthems while the fighters were standing in the ring.
Im pretty sure it was a GGG fight that it happened on......
This is the correct answer. Fighters work up a sweat and are ready, when they walk out, to immediately fight. If theres 3 national anthems, the fighters, who are warm and ready, cool down.
As boxing fans, who the **** wants to waste 30 minutes listening to three different national anthems before the main event? It's bad enough the fights don't even start until around Midnight now. Just get to the damn fight.
That's the worst, when there are 3 freaking anthems.
