The last time you saw someone having to dig deep?
Bloody?
Comeback fight?
i dont see it anymore.
Fighters dont care about belts, legacy, etc.
They all want safety first then that paycheck then fight once every 2 years.

Down significantly. Its losing fans.
Most times a fight looks good on paper and it has the potential to be a barn burner. It is up to the fighters to make that happen.
Zepeda vs Prograis was expected to be an all action fight but it was more of a paced fight.
You never know when you are going to have that fight that has drama in it.
Nova Lopez this past weekend. The Japanese fight from last November. Sounds like the Canadian women's fight last Friday had all the elements.
I hear you on mainstream fighters but when you watch the little cards on the weekend, you still see what makes our sport great.
